  • 1 Whole Egg

Instructions

  • To an empty cocktail shaker, add 2 ounces of Pumpkin Ale, 1 ounce of Apple Brandy (like Laird's), 1 ounce of Rye Whiskey, ½ ounce of maple syrup, and 1 whole egg.

Notes

Not feeling raw eggs? If whole eggs aren’t your thing, but you’re still dying for that frothy texture, try using aquafaba instead. Aquafaba is the juice from cooked chickpeas or the liquid gold found inside a can of chickpeas. Simply dry shake the aquafaba until it’s whipped up and resembles frothed egg whites.
