Inspired by Tom Kha soup, I wanted to take the classic Flip concept for a bit of a journey. It's boozy, sweet, spicy, herbaceous and somewhat creamy. You want this. You absolutely want this! This drink can also be made with tum yum syrup.

Editor's Note

A savory-sweet riff on the classic flip, drawing inspiration from the aromatic profile of Tom Kha soup. Fresh aromatics and coconut milk create a rich, textured experience.
