🍸 Young Man's Delight

Aperitif

5 ingredients
Aperitif
  • 60 mlBlanco tequila
  • 15 mlOrange juice
  • 10 mlLemon juice
  • 20 mlEgg white (pasteurised)
  • 105 mlGinger ale

  1. 1
    Select and pre-chill a HIGHBALL (MAX 10OZ/300ML) GLASS.
  2. 2
    Prepare garnish of Lemon zest twist and quarter orange slice wheel.
  3. 3
    SHAKE first 4 ingredients with ice and strain back into shaker.
  4. 4
    DRY SHAKE (without ice) to emulsify.
  5. 5
    SLOWLY POUR two-thirds of the shaker's contents from a higher-than-normal height into a chilled empty glass (no ice in the glass) while simultaneously pouring ginger beer with your other hand. (The cocktail and ginger ale should form a single stream of liquid falling into the glass.).
  6. 6
    As when pouring a Guinness, to achieve a perfect head, LEAVE TO SETTLE for at least a minute. Ideally, during this settling period, the glass should be placed in a freezer/glass-froster/fridge.
  7. 7
    POUR the final contents of the shaker into the glass. As you do so, the head should rise like a souffle.
  8. 8
    EXPRESS lemon zest twist over the cocktail and discard.
  9. 9
    Garnish with quarter orange slice on rim.
