Cocktail

2 oz gin1/2 oz dry vermouth1/2 oz fresh lemon juice1/2 oz rose syrup (or rosewater + simple syrup equivalent)1/4 oz elderflower liqueur (optional, e.g., St-Germain)1 unit egg white (or aquafaba for vegan)1 to taste ice

Garnish

1 unit edible rose petal or twist of lemon1 unit dried rosebud (optional)

Method

Cocktail

Combine ingredients

Add gin, dry vermouth, fresh lemon juice, rose syrup, elderflower liqueur (if using), and the egg white (or aquafaba) into a cocktail shaker. Do not add ice yet for the first shake.

Dry shake

Seal the shaker and dry-shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds. This emulsifies the egg white and creates a silky foam.

Wet shake

Open the shaker, add a generous handful of ice, reseal, and shake hard for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold to the touch.

Fine strain

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

Garnish & Serve

Spoon or pour the foam gently so it settles on top of the drink. Float one edible rose petal (or a dried rosebud) on the foam, or express a lemon twist over the glass and discard, then place the twist on the rim. Serve immediately.
