Review:

Creamy but not sweet with tequila character shining through. (Añogo is Spanish for 'yearn'.)

History:

Adapted from a recipe created in 2007 by H. Joseph Ehrmann at Elixir in San Francisco, California. His recipe doesn't use advocaat but is instead made with an eggnog base, made by combining beaten egg yolks with sugar, milk, cream and nutmeg. H. has also experimented with ageing the mixture age for three months in a cask before using it in his Añogo. It's a faff to make the eggnog base, so I use advocaat instead. Sorry H.
