  2. Step 2: Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for 20 seconds to emulsify the egg white and muddle the blackberries.
  3. Step 3: Add ice cubes to the shaker and shake again vigorously for 15 seconds until well chilled and frothy.
  4. Step 4: Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to remove berry seeds and ice shards.
