Mary Dowling Winter Wheat

Winter Wheat Egg Nog

Introducing Mary's Heirloom Eggnog, a cocktail as warm and generous as Mary Dowling herself. Crafted with the smooth, toasted character of Mary Dowling's Winter Wheat Bourbon, this rich, velvety nog folds together fresh egg, cream, and a whisper of vanilla — softened by the wheated bourbon's golden honey and gentle oak. Hand-shaken until frothy and finished with freshly grated nutmeg, it's a tribute to the kind of recipes that get passed down — not because they're easy, but because they're worth the time. Pour one for the family. Save one for yourself. A toast to legacy, served velvety and slow.

Ingredients:

1 large egg yolk
½ oz simple syrup
2 oz MD Winter Wheat
1 oz heavy cream
1 oz whole milk
¼ tsp pure vanilla extract
Ice

Garnish:

Freshly grated nutmeg and a cinnamon stick

Instructions

1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the egg yolk, simple syrup, MD Winter Wheat, cream, milk, and vanilla.
2. Dry shake (without ice) for 15 seconds to emulsify the egg.
3. Add ice and shake vigorously for another 15–20 seconds, until well-chilled and frothy.
4. Double-strain into a chilled coupe glass.
5. Garnish with freshly grated nutmeg and a cinnamon stick.
