History:
Adapted from a recipe in Lucius Beebe's 1946 The Stork Club Bar Book, where this cocktail is described as "An improvement, as some may think, on the conventional Alexander cocktail," and is credited to a bartender called Nelson Eddy.
Review:
A creamy combination of vodka-laced coffee and chocolate. (The optional egg white adds body but there's no need to dry shake.)
