Instructions

  • If you're using a fresh egg, crack it open and separate the white from the yolk. If you're using carton egg whites, shake up the carton. Measure out the egg whites.
    ¾ ounce egg whites
  • Add the egg whites, lemon juice, pomegranate juice, simple syrup, Bloody Shiraz gin, and Cherry Bourbon bitters to a cocktail shaker.
    ¾ ounce egg whites, 1 ounce lemon juice, ½ ounce pomegranate juice, ½ ounce simple syrup, 1 ½ ounce Bloody Shiraz gin, 2 dashes Cherry Bourbon bitters
  • Shake everything in the cocktail shaker for about 30-60 seconds without any ice. This is called a dry shake and will build the egg white foam. If you like, add a blender ball or the spring of a cocktail strainer to help build the foam.
  • Add ice to the cocktail shaker and shake about 15-20 times. This will chill and dilute the drink.
  • Add the maraschino cherry to the bottom of your cocktail glass.
    1 Maraschino cherry
  • Strain the cocktail into the glass through both strainers (double strain).
  • Fill the clean medicine dropper with more gin and place it on the side of the glass as garnish.
