Notes
This drink is made using a reverse dry shake method. A reverse dry shake is when you shake a cocktail without ice and then add ice to chill the drink before serving.This is commonly done when you are making a sour or any drink with an egg white. Adding water to an egg white immediately reduces the amount of foam that is produced.Expert Tips✔️ Chill your ingredients. A sour cocktail is made using the reverse dry shake method, so starting with cold ingredients makes your drink chill faster.✔️ Use fresh lemon juice. The recipe doesn't call for a lot but the freshly squeezed juice adds a much smoother flavor than bottled juice which can be bitter.✔️ Serve this drink in a coupe glass. The shape is perfect for showing off the layer of foam.✔️ Shake your drink vigorously for at least 30-60 seconds. Shaking the drink adds air into the egg whites giving you the foamy, creamy layer on the top of the drink.✔️ Don't forget the garnish. We used a lemon twist to give this drink the perfect finishing touch. It's easy to make a twist with a channel knife.
