I was just wondering would it be possible to make any good cocktails out of Advocaat or Rompope. It seems a little to thick for most things. But could you use it as a substitute for a few ingredients in a drink?

There was a minor trend a few years back using them to make "flips", presumably for audiences who would be turned off by the idea of raw egg in their beverage. From my idea of what advocaat is like, seems like it would work well enough.

Hmm I guess that would work but raw egg is not a scary thing for me. I was actually thinking of using it in a Milk Punch.

I don't know the name of the drink but I know a guy from Holland who makes a drink layering Advocaat, creme de cocoa and a coffee liquer (not Kahula) topped with cream in a tall, narrow, straight sided glass.

He says the name translates as "tiger stripes" or something like that.

"There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!" Terry Pratchett
