Preparation Steps
Prepare the Cocktail Shaker
Gather all the cocktail ingredients and a cocktail shaker. Ensure the shaker is clean and dry.
Combine Ingredients
In the cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of dry gin, 1 oz of fresh lemon juice, 0.5 oz of simple syrup, and 1 large egg white.
Dry Shake
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously without ice for about 15 seconds. This helps to emulsify the egg white and create a frothy texture.
Add Ice and Shake Again
Open the shaker and add 1 cup of ice cubes. Seal the shaker again and shake vigorously for an additional 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
Strain the Mixture
Using a fine-mesh strainer, strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass to remove any ice shards and achieve a smooth texture.
Add Bitters
Carefully add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top of the frothy cocktail.
