What does the The Port Wine Flip Cocktail taste like?

The Port Wine Flip is a luxurious, decadent treat. The sweetness of the Port wine and powdered sugar is balanced by the richness of the cream and the velvety texture of the egg.

What tips do you have when making the The Port Wine Flip Cocktail?

This is a classic, so use fresh ingredients. Separate the egg white and yolk, whip the white separately until stiff peaks form. This creates a rich, frothy head. Fold the yolk mixture into the whipped white gently, don’t overmix. Chill the port before combining to prevent the egg from cooking. Don’t shake this drink, just stir gently to avoid over-diluting.
