The Brandy Milk Punch is a classic cocktail that dates back a couple hundred years, but it’s most famously associated with Brennan’s Restaurant in New Orleans. The rich and delicious drink makes a great nightcap or, even better, a companion to brunch. The milk is fortifying and the brandy is brandy. So consider your hangover vanquished.

Brandy Milk Punch

1.5 oz brandy
.5 oz simple syrup
2.5 oz whole milk
4 dashes vanilla extract

Shake all ingredients with ice, then strain into a highball over fresh ice and garnish with freshly-grated nutmeg.
