Rappahannock

• 12 egg yolks
• 3/4 cup superfine sugar
• 3 pints bourbon
• 12 ounces dark rum
• 12 ounces peach brandy
• 3 pints milk
• 1 pint whipped cream

Preparation:

Beat yolks in a kitchen bowl for 30 minutes. (An electric mixer is a good reprieve.) Add the sugar gradually, with no letup. Then, shot by shot, pour in the three liquors, followed by the milk. Last of all, toss in the whipped cream.
