A perfectly balanced bourbon classic with bright lemon, mellow sweetness, and a silky egg-white foam crowned with Angostura bitters and a brandied cherry.

Ingredients

• 60 ml Bourbon whiskey
• 25 ml Fresh lemon juice
• 15 ml Simple syrup
• Egg white × 1
• 3 dash Angostura bitters
• Brandied cherry × 1
• 240 ml Ice cubes

Method

1. Dry shake

   

   Add bourbon, lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white to a shaker WITHOUT ice. Seal and shake hard for 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white into a thick foam.

2. Wet shake

   

   Open the shaker, add a scoop of ice, seal again, and shake hard for another 15 seconds until ice-cold.

3. Double-strain

   

   Double-strain the drink — pour it through the shaker's strainer and a fine sieve at the same time — into a rocks glass over one large clear ice cube to keep the foam pillowy.

4. Drop 3 dashes of Angostura

   

   Drop 3 dashes of Angostura on the foam.

5. Drag a toothpick through

   

   Drag a toothpick through them for a marbled effect. Finish with a brandied cherry.
