The John and Jackie “O” Flip
LIQUOR: Peychaud's Bitters, Whiskey
DIFFICULTY: Moderate
Flips can be a challenge, but if done well, they are a rich, silky cocktail perfect for winter. This one adds the butteriness of Blanton’s bourbon and the spice of Big O with the tartness of lemon/lime. Be sure to shake the egg and sour mix before adding the ice to ensure the pleasant silkiness of this drink.
