Cocktail Colin says:
The Spokes Gold Flip masterfully fuses the robust kick of vodka with a harmonious blend of honey's sweetness and lemon's refreshing tartness, while the egg white adds an exquisitely smooth texture. Topping it with a hint of nutmeg introduces a subtly warm spice, making it as invigorating as it is elegant, much like a thrilling mountain bike race.
