The Auld Alliance (Scots for "Old Alliance") was an alliance between the kingdoms of Scotland and France. This cocktail does just that - it combines Creme de Cassis and Scotch Whiskey.
The bizarre combination of scotch, creme de cassis and egg white gives a very interesting taste. It's fruity, but smooth.

Method

Put all the ingredients into a shaker with no ice. Start with egg white just in case you would make a mistake when detaching egg white from egg yolk. Dry shake (without ice) for 30 seconds. Add ice and shake for another 10 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with dark fruit or lemon skin.
