Method
Cocktail
- 1
Chill glass
Place a martini or coupe glass in the freezer or fill with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail.
- 2
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add the vodka, pistachio liqueur (or orgeat plus pistachio paste), dry vermouth, simple syrup, fresh lemon juice, and egg white (if using).
- 3
Dry shake
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds without ice to emulsify the egg white and create a silky texture and froth.
- 4
Wet shake
Open the shaker, add the ice cubes, reseal, and shake vigorously for another 15–20 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted.
- 5
Strain
Discard the ice/water from the chilled glass if used. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled martini or coupe using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards and any pistachio solids.
Garnish & Serve
- 6
Sprinkle the finely chopped shelled pistachios lightly over the foam or the surface of the cocktail. If using, dust with a little pistachio powder or a hint of lemon zest for aroma. Serve immediately.
