Method
Preparation
Dry shake
Add mezcal, fresh lime juice, agave syrup, orange liqueur, egg white, and Foom orange bitters to a cocktail shaker (no ice). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to emulsify the egg white and create a silky foam.
Wet shake
Open the shaker, add ice (about 1 cup or enough to fill the shaker halfway). Secure the lid and shake hard for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold to the touch and the mixture is well chilled.
Strain
Double-strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer to remove ice shards and ensure a smooth texture.
Garnish & finish
Express the orange twist over the surface to release oils and place it on the foam. Optionally grate a very small pinch of nutmeg or sprinkle a light dusting of smoked sea salt over the foam for aroma and contrast. Serve immediately.
