A bold, muscular, and adventurous Italian cocktail with a flash of orange worthy of Flash Gordon! Made with Irish whiskey, amaro, fresh lemon and egg white, the Flash cocktail will become your new go-to drink. I love to pair it with my Barbarella for a fun 80s movie-themed cocktail party.
The best part about this cocktail? It's incredibly easy to make! It's equal parts whiskey, amaro, and lemon juice, plus a little simple syrup and egg white. All you have to do is add it all together and shake. The egg white adds a nice silky texture to the drink, but it's just as delicious without it if you want to leave it out. If whiskey is your go-to spirit, be sure to check out my guide to brown liquor for more recipes and tips!
