Tried to substitute syrup with Chambord. Less lemon next time I think.

Pennsylvanian

2 1⁄4 oz Calvados
1 1⁄2 oz Madeira
1 Egg white
1 twst Lime peel
Instructions

Shake, strain over ice in a highball, express and insert twist. Some garnish with nutmeg, though this is not considered traditional.

Notes

Troy Patterson, at the link, writes as though this cocktails is rather unpalatable. I haven't tried it, but I have to say that Calvados + Madeira sounds good to me. Maybe the egg white, without soda or much acid to balance it, adds an odd mouthfeel; this drink might benefit from soda or lemon (or simply omitting the egg and serving up).

  • One of those drinks that shouldn't work but does. I'ts not mindblowingly good but it's mindblowing that such a potent combination actually works.
  • Very nice drink with an interesting texture and taste. A very good drink but the Taste Bar (St. Louis) version is very different but markedly improved version.
