    Add egg yolks and white sugar to a mixing bowl and whisk until sugar is dissolved. Add cream, vanilla, and triple sec and whisk until just combined.

  2. Pour mixture through a strainer into a spouted container (to pour easier). Pour strained mixture into ramekins. Cover ramekins with aluminum foil.

  3. Add water to the Instant Pot, and insert the trivet. Carefully stack ramekins so they are all in the Instant Pot and sitting straight.
