About
Despite its name, this cocktail contains no coffee at all. This rich, velvety classic dates back to the 19th century and was first recorded in Bartender’s Guide by Jerry Thomas (1862). With a base of port and cognac, a whole egg for texture, and a dusting of nutmeg, it drinks like a decadent flip, and looks like coffee.Cheers y’all!
