Prepare
Chill a coupe or old-fashioned glass by filling with ice and setting aside while you mix the cocktail.
- 2
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz Disaronno, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup, and 0.5 oz egg white if using.
- 3
Dry shake
If using egg white, seal the shaker and shake vigorously without ice for 10–15 seconds to emulsify and develop a frothy texture.
- 4
Wet shake
Add a generous scoop of ice to the shaker (about 1 cup) and shake hard for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and well chilled.
- 5
Strain
Discard the ice from the chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer to catch ice shards and ensure a silky texture.

Garnish and finish
Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top of the foam (if present). Optionally, use a toothpick to swirl the bitters into a simple pattern. Garnish with a lemon wheel or twist on the rim or floated on the surface.

Serve immediately. Sip and enjoy the smooth almond sweetness of Disaronno balanced by bright lemon and subtle bitterness.
