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.
2 oz Wheyward Wheyskey
¾ oz Fig Syrup (from Liber & Co.)
¼ oz Grenadine
½ oz Lemon Juice
1 dash Angostura Bitters
1 Egg White
2 oz. Ginger Beer (from Fever-Tree)
Combine Wheyskey, Fig Syrup, grenadine, egg white, and Angostura bitters in a shaker. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously to emulsify the egg white. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. Double Strain into a highball glass. Tap the glass twice and wait for 15 seconds to allow the foam to settle. Gently top it off with ginger beer to create a beautiful layered effect. Garnish with three drops of Angostura bitters.

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.
