From other users
- Very good made with Byrrh instead of red wine. It does sink, though, rather than float. A gentle stir is needed.
- Nice use of Byrrh...
- 12/24/17: 2 oz Wild Turkey 101, 3/4 oz lemon, 1/2 oz 2:1 simple, 1 egg white, 3/4 oz ruby port. Might just put wine into shaker next time.
- Use an egg white.

Feel free to sub Byrrh for red wine -- works great, except that it sinks rather than floats.
