    Dry Shake

    In a cocktail shaker, combine rye whiskey, bourbon, lemon juice, simple syrup, Cointreau, pineapple juice, lime juice, egg white, and Peychaud's bitters. Shake without ice vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white.

    Add Ice and Shake

    Add ice to the shaker and shake again for another 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  3. 3

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. Optionally, rinse the glass with Herbsaint before pouring.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Garnish with a lemon twist or a few drops of bitters on top, if desired.
