Sorel Supreme Egg Nog by Hope Clarke
8 eggs- separated into yolks and whites

2 cups bourbon- Wild Turkey 101
3 teaspoons mandarin orange zest
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup Sorel liqueur
1 pinch ground nutmeg/cinnamon to garnish

Method:

Whip egg whites with a half cup of the sugar until stiff, glossy, firm peaks form.
Beat egg yolks with a quarter cup of sugar, until it doubles in volume.
Whip one cup of cream with a half cup of sugar until thick and firm.
Slowly heat the remaining cream with the remaining sugar, bourbon, vanilla, salt, and orange zest until steaming, but not boiling.
Remove from heat and beat slowly into yolk mixture, gently ‘cooking’ the egg yolk.
Add white mixture and mix until smooth.
Fold in Sorel and Sorel whipped cream.
Top with a dollop of Sorel whipped cream and garnish with a pinch of ground nutmeg and cinnamon.
