Root Beer Whiskey flip with an egg! A root beer twist on a classic whiskey flip cocktail.

We ran across Uncle Bob’s Root Beer Flavored Whiskey and knew we had to use it. The combination of whiskey and root beer sounded fun! When we took a sip we got the classic smell and taste of root beer, so we really got excited about the possibilities! Try our Pistachio Whiskey Sour, too!

Root Beer Whiskey

Uncle Bob’s Root Beer Whiskey is distilled and bottled in Mira Loma, California by Founders 49 Distilling and Whiskey House. Made by blending barrel aged whiskey with natural root beer flavors, Uncle Bob’s Root Beer Whiskey is a flavored whiskey in the same vein as the much more famous Fireball or Crown Royal Blackberry.

The folks at Founder 49 did an excellent job of balancing the inherent sweetness of root beer and the bite of the whiskey into a nice combination that almost could be considered a root beer liqueur.

Uncle Bob’s tastes like an old fashioned root beer, with notes of vanilla and caramel sweetness that is cut with a hint of bitterness from the sarsaparilla and birch bark.  Unlike a lot of flavored whiskeys which can be unbalanced and overly sweet, Uncle Bob’s Root Beer Whiskey hits the mark on the balance between sweetness and booziness. It delivers a classic root beer flavor that will appeal to lots of folks who are looking for something new to try.

Root Beer Whiskey Flip

We made this root beer whiskey cocktail to be a creamy cocktail by adding heavy cream and a whole egg. Not just an egg white, but a whole egg makes the whole delicious cocktail rich and silky.

We thought this combo was a great way to mix the warmth of whiskey with some vanilla extract and sweetened it up with powdered sugar, too. So, make this creamy drink if you are a fan of root beer or for a crowd at a cocktail party! Serve this up in a cocktail coupe, rather than over ice in a rocks glass.

Cheers!
