Preparation
1. Prepare the ingredients
Gather all the ingredients: bourbon, cold-pressed lemon juice, egg white, simple syrup, Angostura bitters, and lemon slice.
2. Juicing the lemons
Using a cold-press juicer, extract juice from fresh lemons until you have 3 oz of lemon juice. Strain if necessary to remove pulp.
3. Make the simple syrup
If you don't have simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then cool before using.
Mixing
4. Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of bourbon, 3 oz of cold-pressed lemon juice, 0.5 oz of simple syrup, and the egg white.
5. Dry shake
Shake the mixture vigorously without ice for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white and create foam.
6. Wet shake
Add ice to the shaker and shake again for another 15 seconds until well chilled.
Serving
7. Strain and serve
Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe or rocks glass. The foam should form a nice layer on top.
