Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 1

Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz gin
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 0.5 oz simple syrup
  • 0.5 oz raw egg white or aquafaba
  • 2-3 drops aromatic bitters optional

Instructions
 

  • In a shaker combine all ingredients, shake without ice for 15 seconds.
  • Add a few ice cubes to shaker, shake again.
  • Strain into coupe or Martini glass.
  • If adding bitters, spot them onto the foam.

Notes

  • The dry shake builds a lot of pressure, it's very likely to spill a bit when you open the shaker.
  • The bitters are there mostly for show, they won't change the overall flavor of the drink. You can omit them if you want.
  • You can use aquabafa (chickpea water) in place of eggwhite, in the same amount.
