The Puerto Rican Flip is a classic cocktail with a long history, originating in the 19th century. It is one of the earliest 'flip' cocktails. This nutritious drink was very popular during the Victorian era, featuring port wine and egg yolk. It was once considered a tonic, particularly suitable for cold winter days.
