This cockÂtail is a jack-of-all-trades kind of bevÂerÂage. Well suited for fancy, celÂeÂbraÂtory occaÂsions or more casual, laid-back soirées. The clasÂsic Flip cockÂtail is well-matched with the sweet and tangy pickÂled cherÂries- that have also been enhanced by the punÂgent and pepÂpery extra virÂgin olive oil.
A Flip is a cockÂtail that conÂtains a comÂbiÂnaÂtion of egg (for froth and creamiÂness), sugar (for sweetÂness and balÂance), and either a spirit, liqueur, or forÂtiÂfied wine (for the boozy comÂpoÂnent). They share a mixolÂogy famÂily tree with Egg Nogs, but, while Egg Nogs conÂtain milk or cream, Flips do not. They are actuÂally an enjoyÂable warm-weather or cold-weather sipÂper, served chilled and shaken with ice. This rum flip recipe finds a balÂance between the rich and sweet by utiÂlizÂing pickÂled cherÂries and citÂrus juice for a uniquely refreshÂing and surÂprisÂingly creamy cockÂtail.
