Homemade Advocaat, a traditional Dutch egg-based liqueur, has a rich history dating back to the 17th century. Originally crafted by Dutch merchants returning from the East Indies, this creamy concoction gained popularity as a festive drink. The addition of a splash of rum adds a delightful depth of flavor, enhancing the velvety texture and sweet, custard-like taste. Renowned chefs in the Netherlands, such as those in Amsterdam's historic De Silveren Spiegel restaurant, have perfected the art of creating this indulgent treat. For the best version, sourcing fresh, high-quality eggs and using a good quality rum are essential. Alternatively, some recipes call for brandy or whiskey, offering a unique twist on this beloved beverage.
