Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Your Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients: Sipsmith London Dry Gin, Giffard Blackberry Syrup, Faccia Brut, fresh lime juice, and egg white. Measure out each ingredient accurately.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients in Shaker

    In a cocktail shaker, add the Sipsmith London Dry Gin, Giffard Blackberry Syrup, fresh lime juice, and egg white.

  3. 3

    Dry Shake

    First, perform a 'dry shake' (shake without ice) for about 15 seconds. This helps to emulsify the egg white and create a frothy texture.

  4. 4

    Add Ice and Shake Again

    After the dry shake, add ice to the shaker and shake vigorously for another 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Strain into Glass

    Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe or cocktail glass, ensuring a smooth pour.

  6. 6

    Top with Faccia Brut

    Top the cocktail with the Faccia Brut, pouring gently to maintain the froth from the egg white.

  7. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with a blackberry or a lime twist if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your Midnight Cap!
