Upper Crust

We love orgeat. It's such a cool sweetener as it is not only sweet, but also nutty, and it has this velvety texture. ⁣
⁣
Using it in the Upper Crust cocktail is perfect. It pairs well with Cognac and it creates a very smooth drinking experience. And the Cognac used gives this drink a rather luxurious feeling.⁣
⁣
The taste is rich and creamy, with a perfectly balanced level of sweetness. It is a drink to enjoy after a good dinner, as well as to kick off the weekend with!⁣
