Add the cinnamon whiskey, amaretto, egg, and heavy cream to a cocktail shaker.
Perform a dry shake (shaking without ice) for 15–20 seconds to emulsify the ingredients and create a creamy texture.
Add ice to the shaker and shake again for about 30 seconds until well chilled.
Strain the mixture into a chilled sour or cocktail glass.
Garnish with a light dusting of freshly grated nutmeg and serve immediately.
Pro Tips
- Use fresh eggs for the best texture and flavor. If concerned, opt for pasteurized eggs for safety.
- Ensure the dry shake is vigorous to achieve a frothy and creamy consistency.
- Chill the glass beforehand to keep the cocktail cold and refreshing.
