Method

Cocktail

1

Dry shake

Add tequila, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, egg white, and Averna Amaro (and optional activated charcoal syrup) into a cocktail shaker. Do not add ice yet. Seal and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to emulsify the egg white and create a silky foam.

2

Wet shake

Open the shaker, add 1 cup of ice, reseal, and shake hard for 10–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels very cold (this chills and dilutes the cocktail and further develops the foam).

3

Strain

Double-strain the cocktail through a fine-mesh strainer into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass filled with fresh ice (if you prefer it on the rocks) or served neat. Double-straining removes small ice shards and gives a cleaner texture.

Garnish & Finish

4

On the top of the foam, add 2 small dashes of Angostura bitters. Using a toothpick or a small cocktail pick, gently drag through the drops to create a simple pattern if desired. Finish with a lime wheel or twist on the rim.
