Curated this slightly - added new ingredient Vanilla liqueur, Giffard. 

Texian Egg Nogg

25 oz Mezcal
4 c Milk (whole, raw if available)
10 Whole egg
1 c Sugar
Instructions

Separate eggs. Beat sugar and yolks. Stir in mezcal. Whip the egg whites and fold in. Stir in the milk slowly. 2-3 hrs in fridge before serving.

Notes

You can add one cake of mexican chocolate. Grate it into 1 cup of milk and stir over low heat until dissolved, then allow the mixture to cool before adding.
Can substitute reposado tequila for the mezcal.

History

Made in prison by General Thomas Green of the Army of the Texas Republic and his men after bribing the guards to celebrate the battle of San Jacinto.
Supposedly they made it with donkey milk.

I curated this slightly to bring it into line with the cited link (which is Wondrich's Esquire article). 

miker commented on 12/29/2015:

I got it from Imbibe (2nd edition), not that article, maybe I forgot to put that. Only difference I can see is the book calls for one less cup of milk (3 cups instead of 4). Oh it also didn't specify the servings. That's very useful, I'm making it for New Years Day... Thanks.

 

Zachary Pearson commented on 12/30/2015:

I think I'd take his advice on the creme de cacao (an addition of 6 oz), but I don't know that the raw milk is necessary (or safe) in this application. 

miker commented on 12/31/2015:

Yeah I wrote it how it was in the book. Although actually it was donkey milk in the book. He does specifically call for raw milk as a substitute but i don't intend to use that. I think it's more about historical accuracy. Creme de cacao makes sense, but I'm curious about the Mexican hot chocolate thing so I'm going with that.

A Scotsman In Paradise

2 oz Blended Scotch, Famous Grouse
3⁄4 oz Crème de Banane, Giffard
1 t Allspice Dram, St. Elizabeth
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Pineapple juice
1 T Cream of coconut, Coco López
Instructions

Shake hard, fine strain, double rocks glass with crushed ice. Grated nutmeg garnish.

Notes

Coco Lopez is the most common coconut product used in cocktails. However, if you can get your hands on a high quality coconut puree, such as Perfect Puree of Napa Valley, I highly recommend adding some simple syrup to taste, and use that instead.

Banana, coconut & pineapple with whisky! It shouldn't work, but in the end is damn good. Used coco lopez and thought that was fine.

lunchFlower commented on 7/19/2020:

Pretty good, but I'm not really sure I understand why the lime is in there. Gives a weird sourness. Otherwise I used a bit of smokey scotch which goes nicely with the banana. 

happyrobot commented on 10/10/2021:

Depending on the scotch I might tweak the coconut. I think the current amount in general could bumped up a tiny bit to lend more texture and weight.

But, as others have said, pineapple + coconut cream + scotch = what’s not to love?

Old Man Zeke

1 oz Bourbon, Maker's Mark 46
1 oz Amaro Meletti
1⁄3 oz Grade A dark color and robust taste maple syrup, Trader Joe's Bourbon Barrel Aged
3 ds Bitters, Fee Brothers Whiskey Barrel Aged
1⁄4 oz Orange juice
3 oz Stout, Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout
Instructions

Combine the first five ingredients with ice, then shake until chilled. Add the chocolate stout, then combine by pouring the drink between the two halves of the shaker two or three times. Fine strain into a large chilled martini glass.

Notes

The spices of the amaro and bitters ride atop a wave of sweet cocoa. Drinks like Guinness. Kicks like a mule.

History

Named after my family's old dog and inspired by Trevor Callies' Baverniess, which combines whiskey, Averna and Guinness to intriguing effect. Thought I'd try some more potent flavors that I had on hand. Spiced, warming Meletti for the Averna, Barrel Aged Maple Syrup for the standard stuff, cinnamon-laced Fee Brothers Whiskey Barrel Aged bitters in place of Angostura, and the dangerously rich Samuel Smith's Chocolate Stout to finish.

Like our late mutt, the drink is big, strong, kinda sweet, and definitely won't help you get anything done with your day.
