Instructions

  1. Step 1: Add 2 oz mezcal, 1 oz cold brew coffee, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.5 oz maple syrup, and 1 egg white to a cocktail shaker without ice.
  2. Step 2: Perform a dry shake vigorously for 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white.
  3. Step 3: Add 1 cup of ice cubes to the shaker and shake again vigorously for 20 seconds until the outside of the shaker is frosty.
  4. Step 4: Double strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe glass to remove ice shards and create a smooth foam layer.
  5. Step 5: Garnish with a long lemon twist expressed over the surface, then rested on the rim.
