Looking forward to trying some of these cocktails! My favourite drink is a Wisconsin-style Brandy Old Fashioned, which is best when heavy on the bitters.
There is a bar in Wisconsin that serves shots of Angostura bitters, Interesting history. Check out the story at https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/nelsens-hall-bitters-club

I used what I had on hand. Cointreau instead of GM, Martini & Rossi extra dry and Rosso. Really liked this, found it very sweet. Will have to try it again with GM or similar and compare.
My second egg white cocktail of the evening. I used seedless raspberry jam. Perfect. I’ll use slightly more next time, and slightly less lemon juice. Didn’t have a fresh raspberry so I used a Luxardo cherry. I think I’ll enjoy this one more in the summer. (It’s Xmas eve as I type this)
I decided to make this because I had some egg white available after using the yolk in a recipe. I have everything else except the physalis (which I don’t like anyway) so i used a clementine slice as a garnish. It’s interesting and I liked it, but probably won’t make it again. I’ll look for or create a variation using something other than gin. The gin is very prominent. I rate it 3.5/5.
