I tweaked the recipe slightly after making this a few more times. I felt using a whole egg was a bit too thick for the delicate gin and decided an egg white would suffice to get that frothy effect I was looking for.

sjdiaz21 commented on 1/05/2012:

Changed back to whole egg, while both are great the version with the whole egg was ulimatley used.

  • Used freshly ground nutmeg instead of syrup. Very wintery and seasonal. Taste is a easy 4. The cream curdles and the appearance if that of swampwater which lowered my score. Skip the cream next time?

  • To try
  • I like another dash of Peychaud bitters to offset the sweetness. — ★★★★
  • Lovely, but creme de cacao overpowers other flavors somewhat. Not sure I'd back off all the way to 1/8 oz but def consider a scant pour.
  • All ingredients contribute nicely (even the Creme de Cacao). Lovely color. I used Carpano Antico as Vermouth, which works well with Rye (George Dickel for me).
  • try 1-.25-.25-.25

eSports Chaebol commented on 8/27/2019:

As per suggestion, tried with mole bitters instead of Peychaud's. An excellent, balanced cocktail. A sweeter, more straightforward orange/chocolate companion to the El Nacional in my opinion.

mjforres commented on 5/21/2023:

Very nice. I like this with an additional dash of Peychaud bitters to offset the sweetness.

Curated slightly - we assume you're using fresh ingredients and not concentrates, pre-made mixes, or other ingredients of dubious provenance. Changed Fresh Lime Juice to Lime Juice.

Early Bird (Scott Diaz)

2 oz Bourbon, Maker's Mark (Bacon fat infused - see note)
1 Egg white
1 bsp Maple syrup
1⁄2 oz Vanilla liqueur, Navan
Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a pint glass with ice. Cover and shake vigorously for 15 to 20 seconds. Strain into a chilled Old Fashioned glass with large ice cubes. Garnish with a maple bacon strip.

Notes

Take a 750 ml bottle of Maker's Mark and 3 ounces of bacon fat. Combine cooled bacon fat and Bourbon in a large pitcher. Place at room temperature for about 6 hours. Place upright in a freezer and chill until the fat rises and solidifies into a sold disk. Remove from freezer and toss away fat. Double strain into a container that can use a pour spout. Keep for up to 4 weeks.

I think here it's best to use a really quality aged Balsamic. It will lend sweetness to the beverage that might end up being a little tart, especially if your strawberries are a little unripe.
