This drink is less famous than his sister, Brandy. But it is older and therefore sharper, since it uses gin. It is good for the goose, and the addition of nutmeg makes it good for the gander, as well.

Alexander

• 1 oz. gin
• 1 oz. white creme de cacao
• 1 oz. light cream (or half and half)
• grated nutmeg (optional)

Pour liquid ingredients into a shaker filled with ice, and shake well. Strain into a cocktail glass of choice, and sprinkle the nutmeg if desired. Personally I would sprinkle chocolate shavings, but that’s the way I roll 🙂
