Review:
With a whole egg, a shot of tequila, Jägermeister 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."
Alcohol content:
- 1.3 standard drinks
- 27.78% alc./vol. (55.56° proof)
- 18.8 grams of pure alcohol
