Brandy Flip
A serious alternative to advocaat for those without raw egg inhibitions

Use a larger coupe glass than normal. The recipe does not dictate egg size. Larger eggs may need a extra dash of brandy. I could never get a flip to fit into a Nick and Nora glass, so it doesn't seem unusual to need a slight glassware upgrade.
