Review:

With a whole egg, a shot of tequila, bittersweet liqueur and Chartreuse, this is both a Death Flip and perhaps your last meal, for a while at least. Challenging herbal and bitter complexity yet with endearing sweet creaminess.

History:

Adapted from a recipe created in 2010 by Chris "Hasselhoff" Hysted Hysted-Adams at the Black Pearl in Melbourne, Australia, where it was an immediate hit on the menu, despite its being listed without ingredients and the warning, "You don't wanna meet this cocktail in a dark alley."

I used Strega in this one. I really wasn't a fan of the tequila eggnog recipe I made last year so was unsure how this would go. I really ended up liking this one though. The tequila is very well complimented by the Jager and Stega. I've only used the Strega in one other drink in the past so am not too familiar with exactly what its bringing to the table besides the additional non-anise herbal tones. All in all a fun interesting twist.
