Method
Cocktail
- 1
Prepare ingredients
Juice fresh lemon and measure whiskey and simple syrup. If using egg white, separate one egg and reserve the white (about 0.5 egg white for a slightly lighter foam). Have Angostura bitters and ice ready.

Dry shake
Add bourbon, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, egg white (if using), and 2 dashes Angostura bitters to a cocktail shaker without ice. Seal and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to emulsify the egg white and build foam.

Wet shake
Open the shaker, add a generous handful of ice (about 1 cup). Seal and shake again hard for 10–15 seconds until well chilled and the outside of the shaker is frosty.

Strain
Fine-strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or rocks glass (if serving over ice, double-strain into a rocks glass filled with fresh ice). Use a fine mesh strainer to remove tiny ice chips and any coagulated egg bits for a silky texture.
