Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare and dry shake

Add the gin, blue curaçao, lemon juice, creme de violette, simple syrup, and egg white to a cocktail shaker (no ice). Seal and 'dry shake' vigorously for 15–20 seconds to emulsify the egg white and create foam.

2

Wet shake

Open the shaker, add the ice cubes, reseal, and shake hard for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and well chilled.

3

Strain

Double-strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled coupe or martini glass to remove ice chips and ensure a silky texture.

Garnish & Finish

4

Express a lemon twist over the surface of the drink to release oils, run it around the rim, then place it on the glass. Optionally float a small edible flower on the foam for an elegant presentation.

5

Serve immediately. The drink yields a pale sky-blue color with a violet edge from the creme de violette and a frothy white foam from the egg white.
