Using an egg white in a mixed drink is pretty out there as far as creative cocktail recipes go. Dubbed the 'Mead of Poetry,' the libation was crafted by a mixologist team from CH Favorite. Reyka Vodka is one ingredient, as well as items like mead, simple syrup and allspice.
Apparently easy enough to make at home, the Mead of Poetry is described by Cool Hunter's David Graver as "complex and full of character" resulting from the note of allspice and the egg white froth. For bonus points, you can also make your own mead using fermented yeast, water, honey and citrus. The creative cocktail can also be garnished with orange peel for added flair.
