The Egg Cream Fizz

I’ve put together a twist on a traditional Egg Cream. Never heard of one? Well, it it originated among Eastern European Jewish immigrants in New York City. It usually consists of cream, chocolate syrup and seltzer/soda water. Thats right… it contains NO EGGS... until now. I’ve combined this classic with a similar technique to a Ramos gin fizz and the results were pretty epic. See the recipe below.

To the Stars

🌹 Rose-infused cocktails? Say what? With Valentine's Day around the corner, I’m excited to #partner with @grangala to bring you the perfect cocktail recipe for that date night with your significant other.
.
If you’re not familiar with #GranGala, it’s a blend of Italian VSOP brandy infused with fresh oranges. I figured this would pair really well with the floral aspect of rosebud tea, zestiness from fresh squeezed lemon and bring it all together with a rich coconut cream. Check out the recipe below or check out the link in the bio!

Consider this your rainy-day cocktail recipe ☔️🥃

A little backstory on this one, I received a unique ingredient from my friends at stgeorgespirits - an Umeshu liqueur. Traditionally Umeshu is created by steeping Japanese plums in shochu and sugar and it produces a fruity, sweet and slightly tart flavor that is just perfect for sipping or in a cocktail. Now, this bottle is discontinued so I’ve been savoring every last drop.

I wanted to make a recipe that would be as unique as the liqueur and had the idea to pair Saint George’s Baller Single Malt with a sweet soy syrup (this is more sweet with a touch of savory from soy), the cocktail is brightened up with a bit of calamansi just to round out the flavors, creating a drink that is a little sweet, fruity, savory with a hint of citrus tartness. I wish I could say this would be easy to recreate as I realize these ingredients are not something very common in one’s pantry, but if you get a chance, try this out one out.

Cheers y’all.
