A creamy after-dinner sip that lives up to its name, with toasty hazelnut liqueur and bright black-raspberry liqueur shaken with fresh cream into something dessert-like and easygoing. Equal measures keep the nutty and the fruity in step, while the cream softens everything into a milkshake-smooth finish under an optional dusting of nutmeg.
Garnish: Grated Nutmeg

No one has pinned down who first mixed this drink, or where or when, and there is no documented creator. The name is a plain description of its two liqueurs: hazelnut for the nuts, raspberry for the berries. Recipes from many independent kitchens and bars agree on equal parts of the pair, most often Frangelico and Chambord, topped up with cream or milk, differing only in how generous the dairy pour is. It turns up shaken and strained into a coupe, built over ice and knocked back as a shot.
