Brandy Flip Recipe

A flip is a type of cocktail made from a whole egg yolks and whites. The brandy flip is almost certainly one of the oldest flips, harkening back at least as far as the american colonial period. Flips have a lot in common with egg nogs; the main difference is that nogs (usually) have cream and flips dont. The brandy flip has a pleasing noggy character, without the thick texture normally associated with that holiday treat. We often treat nutmeg as an optional garnish, but its a necessary ingredient that brings that must-have holiday spice flavor.
