Method
Cocktail Preparation
- 1

In a cocktail shaker, combine the mezcal, Midori, herbal liquor, and fresh lime juice. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

Strain the Mixture
Strain the cocktail mixture into a chilled coupe glass or a rocks glass filled with ice, depending on your preference.
Watermelon Foam Preparation
- 3
Prepare Watermelon Juice
To make fresh watermelon juice, blend ripe watermelon chunks in a blender until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove pulp, yielding about 1 cup of juice.
- 4
Make the Foam
In a separate shaker, combine the fresh watermelon juice, simple syrup, egg white (or aquafaba), and a pinch of sea salt. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 30 seconds to create foam.
- 5
Chill the Foam
Add ice to the shaker and shake again for another 15 seconds. This will chill the foam and incorporate air. Strain the foam over the cocktail in the glass, layering it on top.
