Bourbon Milk Punch

Since we're talking booze, I may as well post the Bourbon Milk Punch recipe. I usually only make this at Christmas time, but it's rather similar to the Ramos Gin Fizz, so what the hell. By the way, check out Culinary Fool's Ramos Gin Fizz from yesterday, it looks great! Anyway, the drink. I go a little heavy on the Bourbon (I like Maker's Mark) in my version, so you may want to cut it back. This recipe is for 1 cocktail:

Bourbon Milk Punch Recipe

2 oz. Good Quality Bourbon (I like Maker's Mark)
1/2 oz. Vanilla Extract
1/2 oz. Simple Syrup
1 oz. Heavy Cream
2 oz. Whole Milk
1/4 of 1 Egg White

Add the contents to a cocktail shaker with plenty of ice. Shake until good and frothy. Serve in a frosted old fashioned glass. Garnish with:

Freshly Grated Nutmeg

**I can't wait until the mint in my herb garden comes in for Mint Julep's.
