Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Base Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine Japanese whiskey, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup. Add ice to the shaker until it's about halfway full.

  2. 2

    Add Egg White

    Add the egg white to the shaker. This will create a frothy texture when shaken.

  3. 3

    Shake the Mixture

    Shake vigorously for about 20-30 seconds to chill the mixture and create froth from the egg white. Ensure the shaker is sealed properly to avoid spills.

  4. 4

    Strain Into Glass

    Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass without ice.

  5. 5

    Add Bitters

    Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top of the drink for added aroma and flavor.

Garnishing

  1. 6

    Garnish the Drink

    Garnish the drink with a lemon wheel placed on the rim of the glass and a maraschino cherry dropped into the drink.
