Rose Cocktail
Method
Rose Cocktail
- 1
- 2
Dry shake (if using egg white)
In a shaker, combine 2 oz gin, 3/4 oz dry vermouth, 1/2 oz elderflower liqueur, 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice, 1/4 oz simple syrup, 1/4 tsp rose water, 1/2 egg white and 1 dash Angostura bitters. Seal the shaker and shake vigorously without ice for 15–20 seconds to emulsify the egg white and build a silky foam.

Wet shake
Add 1 cup of ice to the shaker. Shake again vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold to the touch and the cocktail is well chilled and slightly diluted.

Strain and serve
Discard ice or water from the chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer into the chilled coupe or martini glass to remove ice shards and any coagulated egg bits (if used).

Finish and garnish
Optionally add a final tiny drop of rose water on top of the foam for aroma (be careful — rose water is potent). Garnish with a single edible rose petal floated on the foam or a lemon twist. Serve immediately.
