Named after the best Christmas movie to grace the silver screen, the Yippee Ki Yay brings a lot of flavor by combining barrel aged gin from Temple Distilling and cold brew. This riff on a White Russian tastes best with fresh nutmeg grated on top; it really brings everything together on the first sip. John McClane could have used a few of these — too bad they weren’t on the Nakatomi Plaza Christmas party menu!
