- 2 ounces gin
- 3/4 ounce Licor 43 (citrus-and-vanilla-flavored liqueur)

- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add the gin, Licor 43 and cream and shake well.
- Strain the drink into a chilled rocks glass and garnish with the bitters.
- note To caramelize bitters (which makes the drink more fragrant), add a small amount to a small, clean spray bottle (widely available at drugstores).
