Up Your Milk Intake With These Delicious Dairy Cocktails
Dairy and alcohol, they go along more than people realise. This combination has its own fan following. Don’t believe us? Well, we had a word with our in-house expert and Brand Ambassador, Reserve Portfolio at Diageo- Zachary Abbott and he confirms it. According to Zachary, dairy and alcohol when correctly combined can ensnare the senses and delight the palate.
Now a few home bartenders will right away be claiming that the whisky sour or any sour for that matter or flip (cocktails containing a whole egg) as the original combination.
