History

With egg, tequila, bittersweet liqueur and Chartreuse, this challenging drink offers herbal, bitter complexity and sweet creaminess.

This drink was developed in 2010 by Chris "Hasselhoff" Hysted Hysted-Adams at the Black Pearl in Melbourne, Australia. It quickly became a popular item on the menu, despite being presented without its ingredients and accompanied by the warning, "You don't wanna meet this cocktail in a dark alley."
