Method

Cocktail

1

Dry shake

Add blended Scotch, fresh lemon juice, rich simple syrup, egg white, and 3 dashes Angostura to a cocktail shaker without ice. Seal and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to emulsify and produce a creamy foam.

2

Wet shake

Open the shaker and add a generous scoop of ice (about 4–6 large cubes). Seal and shake again vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is frosty and well-chilled.

3

Double strain and serve

Double-strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass to remove ice shards and obtain a silky texture.

Garnish

4

Carefully drop 2 small drops of Angostura bitters onto the foam. Using a toothpick, gently drag through the drops to create a small pattern if desired. Express the lemon twist over the surface to release oils, rub around the rim, then lay it across the foam or perch it on the glass.
