Ingredients

  1. 2 oz Survivor's Cut Bourbon Whiskey
  2. .75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
  3. .75 oz Simple Syrup
  4. 1 Egg White

Directions

  1. Pick out a Nick and Nora glass and add ice to chill it while building the cocktail.
  2. Crack an egg and separate the whites into a cocktail shaker. Discard the yolk and shell.
  3. Using a jigger, measure all ingredients into the cocktail shaker.
  4. Seal your shaker well and shake for 15 seconds without ice.
  5. Add ice to the shaker and shake hard for 15-20 seconds until the shaker becomes cold and frosty.
  6. Discard the ice from the Nick and Nora glass.
  7. Using both a Hawthorne strainer and a fine-mesh strainer, double strain the cocktail into the chilled Nick and Nora glass.
  8. Hold a lemon peel with the skin side facing the drink, then pinch it to release the oils over the top of the cocktail. Rub the peel along the rim of the glass, give it a twist, and place it on the rim to garnish.
  9. Use a dropper and drop angostura bitters on top of the egg white foam and run a toothpick through the dots to create a design.
