Tom & Jerry Recipe

11 ingredients
2 steps

Ingredients

  • 12 eggs, separated
  • 1 pound sugar (add more if you prefer it sweeter)
  • 2 ounces aged rum (Appleton Extra, Bacardi 8, and Cockspur are all good choices)
  • 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
  • 1 ounce brandy
  • 1 ounce aged rum
  • Hot milk
  • Boiling water
  • Grated nutmeg

Directions

  1. 1
    Beat the egg yolks well, then gradually whisk in the sugar. Add the rum and spices. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff and fold into the yolk mixture until well mixed. Keep batter refrigerated until serving.
  2. 2
    For each drink, put 2 ounces of batter into a toddy mug. Add 1 ounce each of brandy and aged rum (bourbon or rye whiskey also work well), and fill with equal parts hot milk and boiling water. Top with grated nutmeg. If using a small coffee cup or classic Tom & Jerry mug, you may wish to cut the serving size in half.
