- Whip the cream and sugar in a chilled bowl, until the cream begins to thicken. Gradually whip in the white wine, lemon juice and lemon zest. Continue to whip until light and fluffy, but not grainy. Cover the mixture and chill until serving time.
- Serve in chilled glasses, garnished with a dash of nutmeg, a sprig of mint and a slice of lemon. Syllabub should be eaten with a small spoon, and savoured.

Tastes great and so easy to make, managed to make 5 portions wouldn't have got 6 though. - 04 Oct 2012
This is a lovely dessert! Try substituting Limoncello for the white wine, it lends a more subtle hint of alcohol. I also like using double cream (Devonshire) for its richness and serve with a lemon ginger cookie or lemon biscotti. - 18 Aug 2009 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
