Saigon Coffee Silk

Description

Coffee syrup and condensed-milk liqueur put this firmly in the sweet iced-coffee camp, with rum underneath. A whole egg gives it the smooth, custardy texture of a flip. The orange twist offers a fragrant contrast over a rich drink best suited to the end of a meal.

Ingredients

40 ml Rum
20 ml Coffee syrup
10 ml Condensed milk liqueur
1 piece Whole Egg (or vegan foamer)
Ice
Orange Twist

Equipment needed

Cocktail Shaker – Used to chill, dilute and integrate the cocktail before serving. Muddler – Useful for gently pressing herbs, fruit or sugar when building the drink. Fine Mesh Strainer – Use for a polished double-strain when citrus, fruit or herbs are shaken.

Instructions

Add the rum, coffee syrup, condensed milk liqueur and whole egg to a shaker without ice.
Dry shake hard for 15 seconds to emulsify the egg.
Add ice and shake again until thoroughly chilled.
Fine strain into a chilled glass and finish with the chosen garnish.
