café italo

2 oz Amaro Nardini
3/4 oz Demerara Syrup
1 Orange Peel
1 Whole Egg

Shake the egg, add the rest of the ingredients, and shake with ice. Strain into a double old fashioned glass (the photo shows a large ice cube not mentioned in the book's text), and garnish with an additional orange peel.Two Saturdays ago, I reached for Neal Bodenheimer and Emily Timberlake's Cure: New Orleans Drinks and How to Mix 'Em book. There, I spotted the Café Italo by Kirk Estopinal at Cure that was inspired by the Terry's brand chocolate orange candy and reminded me of the Cynar Flip. In the glass, the Café Italo approached with an orange, caramel, and herbal bouquet. Next, a creamy caramel sip was followed by caramel, toffee, coffee, and orange flavors on the swallow.
