Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a shaker without ice, combine 2 oz blended Scotch whisky, 3/4 oz fresh lemon juice, 1/4 oz fresh orange juice, 3/4 oz simple syrup, and 1 large egg white. Dry shake vigorously for 20 seconds to emulsify and create foam.
  2. Step 2: Add ice to the shaker and shake again hard for 15 seconds until well chilled and frothy.
  3. Step 3: Strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe glass, allowing the silky foam to settle on top.
  4. Step 4: Garnish with 2 dashes of Angostura bitters on the foam and a twist of orange peel, expressing oils over the drink before placing it on the rim.
