3/4 oz Lemon juice
1/2 oz Sugar syrup 'rich' (2:1)
1/2 oz Egg white (pasteurised)
How to make
Serve in a martini glass
Prepare
- 1 Select and pre-chill a MARTINI GLASS.
- 2 Prepare garnish of lemon zest twist.
Method
- 3 INFUSE gin with black tea (preferably Earl Grey). Rather than infuse a whole bottle, you can instead pour just 120ml (4oz) dry gin (enough for two cocktails) into a small glass with one Earl Grey tea bag for 5 minutes at room temperature to achieve the desired flavour extraction. (Any longer and tannins can be overly dominant.)
- 4 SHAKE all ingredients with ice and strain back into shaker.
- 5 DRY SHAKE (without ice) to emulsify.
- 6 FINE STRAIN into chilled glass.
Garnish
- 7 EXPRESS lemon zest twist over the cocktail and use as garnish.
