The cocktail equivalent of a New York egg cream, this rich and fizzy bourbon drink is absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

Steps

  1. Add all ingredients except the club soda into a shaker with ice and shake for 10 seconds.

  2. Double-strain into a Collins glass.

  3. Fill with the club soda, pouring from about 6 inches above the glass.

  4. Wait a few seconds and then add another splash of soda. This will lift the foam above the top of the glass.

  5. Serve with a straw.
