The preparation

4 steps, about 3 minutes start to finish.

01
Combine brandy, RumChata, egg yolk, milk, and simple syrup in a shaker.
02
Dry shake (without ice) to emulsify the egg.
03
Add ice and shake again.
04
Strain into glass and top with freshly grated nutmeg.

lightbulb The chef's notes

“Dry shake without ice first to emulsify the egg yolk into the drink, then add ice and shake again to chill. Skip that first step and the yolk never fully blends, leaving a thin, separated nog.”
