Instructions

  1. Step 1: Add bourbon, lemon juice, simple syrup, blackberry syrup, and egg white to a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds until frothy and well-chilled.
  2. Step 2: Strain into a chilled coupe glass through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any ice shards or egg white solids.
  3. Step 3: Gently pour the red wine over the back of a spoon to create a delicate float layer on top, ensuring it doesn't mix with the cocktail.
