Hazardous ingredients
Pasteurised egg white is potentially hazardous to those with allergy or intolerance.
Review:
Cognac and orange curaçao are natural partners, here smoothed with egg white and sharpened with a dash of orange bitters. According to tastes, you may want to reduce or omit the sugar syrup, particularly if you are using a particularly sweet orange curaçao liqueur.
Variant:
With dash of anisette liqueur or absinthe this becomes the Dream cocktail.
History:
Created in the early 1900s as the house cocktail at the New Netherland Hotel, on Fifth Avenue (at 59th Street) New York City, which was for a period the tallest hotel in the world.
