This crowd-pleasing cocktail comes from Harrison Ginsberg, who created it while working at The Dead Rabbit in New York City and uses Tullamore D.E.W. 12-year-old as its whiskey base. Bitters, ginger syrup, sherry, apple brandy and even Guinness are added to the party. All the ingredients are shaken, strained and served with a nutmeg garnish.

Steps

  1. Add all ingredients into a shaker with ice and shake until well-chilled.

  3. Garnish with grated nutmeg.
