1 oz. fresh lemon juice (about the juice of one medium lemon)
3/4 oz. maple syrup or simple syrup
1 egg white
ice
Instructions
Add all of the ingredients to a cocktail shaker (with the ice).
Shake vigorously for 30 seconds to emulsify the egg.
Strain and pour into a coupe glass (or martini glass) and serve!
Notes
Yes – you can make this without the egg white but no, it will not taste as good.
I opt for a middle-of-the-road bourbon here like Woodford, Knob Creek or Bulleit. You want something pleasing to the palate but don’t waste your best stuff on a drink with this much flavor.
