Tips

- Use a brandy with a good balance of fruit and spice, such as Cognac or Armagnac. - The cream should be cold and well-shaken before adding it to the drink. This will help to create a smooth, frothy texture. - If you don't have creme de cacao, you can use chocolate syrup or liqueur instead. - For a sweeter drink, add a little more creme de cacao. - For a stronger drink, add a little more brandy. - Garnish with a cherry or orange twist.
