Room 4 Dessert Sour

By Will Goldfarb

This recipe is adapted from Will Goldfarb, the innovative chef behind Room 4 Dessert (www.nyr4d.com), in New York City. Egg whites give this drink the body and Chambord provides a jammy punch that complements the berry undertones in this Chocolate-Cranberry Torte .
