Whiskey Dream Flip

Flips were originally warm drinks made with egg and various liquors, but today they are typically served cold. This Whiskey Flip Cocktail retains the traditional blend of whiskey, egg, and sugar, with the optional addition of heavy cream for a rich texture. Topped with a sprinkle of nutmeg, this soothing cocktail is perfect for unwinding at the end of the day.
