Garnish:
Half walnut on rim or rest on the ice
How to make:
STIR all ingredients with ice and strain into ice-filled glass (preferably over a large cube or chunk of block ice).
2 fl oz | Cognac (brandy) |
1/2 fl oz | Pedro Ximénez sherry |
1/2 fl oz | Mandarine Napoleon liqueur |
1/4 fl oz | Nocello walnut liqueur |
Hazardous ingredients
Nocello walnut liqueur is potentially hazardous to those with allergy or intolerance.
Review:
A great after-dinner cocktail any time of year but particularly appropriate over the festive period due to its ingredients – Pedro Ximénez sherry tastes like Christmas pudding, mandarins are not just for Christmas and walnuts are best cracked whilst watching a Christmas special.
