A riff on a Brazilian Lemonade, this creamy, dreamy blend is both refreshing and indulgent. Wheyskey adds a sophisticated touch with its depth, sweetened condensed milk introduces a creamy sweetness, passion fruit puree adds a bright contrast, and the egg yolk introduces a rich and luxurious flip element to the mix.
2 oz Wheyward Wheyskey
½ oz Passion Fruit Puree
¼ oz Sweetened Condensed Milk
¼ oz Rich Demerara Syrup (2:1)*
1 Egg Yolk
2 dash Angostura Bitters
Dehydrated Lime wedge for garnish
Combine all ingredients and dry shake (without ice) for 20-30 seconds to emulsify the egg yolk. Add ice and shake again for 10-15 seconds. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with a dehydrated lime wedge.
*Rich Demerara Syrup
Add 2 cups of demerara sugar and 1 cup of hot water to a small sauce pan over low to medium heat. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool before use. Store excess in an airtight container. Recipe can be scaled up or down as needed.

This cocktail is not just a drink; it’s a homage to Caravaggio’s "Basket of Fruit”. Each sip is like a brushstroke, lending the rich, dark sweetness of figs with the tartness of pomegranate, all grounded by Wheyskey’s warmth. The egg white adds a smooth, painterly texture, reminiscent of the way light plays across Caravaggio’s fruits.
