Silver Streak
A fun sweet shot/up cocktail, the Silver Streak is great in batches or as a stand alone cocktail. With Gin, Licor 43 Liqueur and Advocate, a traditional Dutch alcoholic beverage made from eggs, sugar, and brandy, it can double as a dessert cocktail. Additionally, it would be great poured over ice cream or a cheese cake!

Thus, the world’s first cocktail was born!
