Equipment

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Add whiskey, Baileys, lime juice, simple syrup, and the egg to a shaker (no ice yet).
  • Dry shake for 20 seconds to fully mix and build foam.
  • Add ice and shake again until well chilled, about 10–12 seconds.
  • Strain into a chilled coupe glass.
  • Lightly sprinkle sugar on top in an even layer.
  • Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until golden and crisp.
  • Let it cool slightly, then serve.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Use a light hand with the torch just enough to melt and caramelize the sugar without burning it.
  • Always dry shake egg drinks to get that smooth, silky texture.
  • Chill the glass ahead of time so the drink stays cool while you torch the top.
