Amalfi Vice Recipe

Cocktail

1. 1

   Prepare

   Chill a coupe or Collins glass in the freezer or by filling with ice water while you prepare the drink.

2. 2

   Dry shake (if using egg white)

   If using egg white for a silky foam, add the egg white to a cocktail shaker and dry shake (no ice) vigorously for 15 seconds to emulsify.

3. 3

   Build & shake

   Add gin, limoncello, fresh lemon juice, elderflower liqueur, grapefruit juice, simple syrup and the egg-white (if used) into the shaker. Add 6 ice cubes, secure the lid, and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until well chilled and the shaker feels cold.

4. 4

   Double strain

   Remove the ice from the chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or a tall glass over fresh ice (if you prefer it on the rocks) using a fine mesh strainer to catch ice shards and egg white solids.

5. 5

   Top & garnish

   Top with about 1 ounce of club soda for a light effervescence. Express a grapefruit twist over the drink to release oils, run it around the rim, and drop it in. Add a lemon wheel on the rim or floated on top.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve immediately. Recommend stirring gently once if served on the rocks to incorporate the soda without disturbing the foam (if present).
