The sangaree is one of the oldest American cocktails. Traditionally, it was a harmonious combination of wine, sugar, and nutmeg. This recipe uses honey liqueur instead of sugar, and the nutmeg spice is perfectly complemented by the light citrus note of orange zest.

Ingredients:

• Ice
• 60 ml Amontillado sherry
• 1 tbsp honey liqueur (we recommend: Baerenjaeger)
• A strip of fresh orange zest
• Nutmeg husks or ground nutmeg
