Method
- 1
Combine Ingredients (Dry Shake)
In a cocktail shaker, combine 60 ml of gin, 22.5 ml of fresh lemon juice, 15 ml of Cointreau, 7.5 ml of Crème de Violette, and 1 egg white. Secure the lid tightly and dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This emulsifies the egg white and creates a beautiful foam.
The 'dry shake' is crucial for achieving a rich, stable foam. Don't skip this step!

Add Ice and Wet Shake
Now, add 1 cup of fresh ice to the shaker. Secure the lid again and wet shake vigorously for another 15-20 seconds, or until the shaker is thoroughly chilled. This chills and dilutes the cocktail to perfection.
Use fresh, large ice cubes for shaking to minimize dilution and maximize chill.
Timer: 1 mincocktail shaker - 3
Strain and Garnish
Double strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or martini glass. The double strain (using a fine-mesh sieve in addition to your shaker's built-in strainer) ensures a smooth, frothy texture free of any ice shards or egg white bits. Garnish with a lemon twist or a delicate edible flower for an elegant presentation.
Chilling your glass beforehand helps keep your cocktail colder for longer. Place it in the freezer for 10-15 minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the drink.
