Instructions:

Whisk the Cream: Begin by placing the fresh cream into a cold mixing bowl. Using a whisk, beat the cream until it forms soft peaks. If you’d like extra precision and decoration, transfer the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a star-shaped nozzle. This will give the cream a beautiful, decorative texture for serving.

Prepare the Vov: In a small saucepan, pour the Vov (a traditional Italian egg liqueur). Heat it gently over medium-low heat for a few minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure it warms up but does not boil. The liqueur should become warm and inviting, perfect for pairing with the cream.
-
Assemble the Bombardino: Pour the warm Vov into serving glasses, filling each glass about two-thirds full. Add a shot of brandy to each glass, stirring gently to combine the flavors.
-
Top with Whipped Cream: Using the piping bag with the whipped cream, top each glass of the Vov and brandy mixture with a generous swirl of fresh cream. You can make it as decorative as you’d like with the star-shaped nozzle, creating a visually appealing and frothy top.

Serve and Enjoy: The Bombardino is now ready to be served! This rich, creamy beverage is perfect for cozy winter nights or any festive occasion where a warm, indulgent drink is desired. Serve immediately, and enjoy the blend of egg liqueur, brandy, and luscious whipped cream.
