Ingredients

1 1/2 Ounce Woodford Bourbon
2 bar spoons of Vieux Carre Absinthe
1 Ounce egg white
1 bar spoon vanilla simple syrup
1 Ounce maple simple syrup
Pinch of powdered sugar
Pinch of cinnamon

Directions

Combine Woodford, Vieux Carre, vanilla, egg white, maple simple syrup, and cinnamon in a shaker tin, dry shake first. (This will help get a huge, foamy head on the cocktail.) Then add ice and shake vigorously. Strain into a Marie Antoinette glass, and dust with powdered sugar. Garnish with a few specks of cinnamon in one spot for contrast.

French Toast Shopping Tip

What’s the difference between brown and white eggs? Besides color, nothing – different breeds of chicken account for the differences in color – quality and freshness are what really count.

French Toast Cooking Tip

In addition to keeping foods like granola, yogurt, and fruit on hand, plan ahead for hectic weekdays by whipping up extra batches of waffles or pancakes and individually freezing them for easy morning meals.
