FAQ's
How do you properly shake a Whisky Flip?
To properly shake a Whisky Flip, first, add the whiskey, sugar, half and half, and egg white into a shaker. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This ensures the egg white is fully incorporated, creating a smooth, frothy texture. Strain the mixture into a wine glass and garnish with a pinch of nutmeg.
What garnish is best for a Whisky Flip?
The best garnish for a Whisky Flip is a light dusting of nutmeg on top of the cocktail. This not only adds a beautiful visual appeal but also complements the creamy, rich flavors of the drink.
Is there a vegan alternative to using egg white in a Whisky Flip?
Yes, for a vegan alternative to egg white in a Whisky Flip, you can use aquafaba, which is the liquid from a can of chickpeas. Use about 30ml (or 2 tablespoons) of aquafaba to replace the egg white; it creates a similar frothy texture and is a great vegan substitute.
Can I replace half and half in a Whisky Flip with a different type of cream?
Yes, you can replace half and half in a Whisky Flip with heavy cream for a richer, thicker texture, or with milk for a lighter version. The choice depends on your preference for the drink's creaminess and calorie content.
How does the alcohol content of a Whisky Flip compare to a standard cocktail?
A Whisky Flip contains about 22.64% alcohol content, which is slightly higher than many standard cocktails, which usually hover around 15-20%. However, its alcohol content is less than that of straight spirits, making it a moderately strong choice.
