1. 01

   Pre-chill one clear coupe and ready a whole nutmeg with a fine grater for a restrained finish.

2. 02

   Measure 45 ml añejo tequila, 15 ml dark cacao liqueur, 15 ml clear cacao liqueur, 22.5 ml cold heavy cream, and the optional egg white into a shaker.

3. 03

   Fill the shaker three-quarters full with solid cold ice, seal it, and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds.

4. 04

   Strain the drink back into the empty shaker and dry-shake without ice until smooth and lightly aerated.

5. 05

   Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so the creamy surface is even and free of ice fragments.

   Apply one very light, even dusting of freshly grated nutmeg and serve without another garnish.
