Ingredients

1 egg white
2 ounce minute maid apple juice
.5 ounce light brown simple sugar
1.5 ounce sailer jerry rum
1 orange twist
ground nutmeg
.75 ounce maraschino syrup

Directions

Combine all of the ingredients into tin shaker WITHOUT ice. Make sure to start with egg white first before any of the other ingredients in case part of the shell breaks off. This ensures no liquor is wasted if part of the shell does break off. Dry shake the ingredients/add ice shake again. Strain into chilled coupe. Garnish with nutmeg and orange twist. Do not make twist above the drink as you usually would- it will make the head from the egg white dissipate.
