A romantic and balanced take.
Ingredients
Scale
For the cocktail:
- 2 oz vodka
- 1 egg white
- .50 oz dry vermouth
- .75 oz lemon
- .75 oz strawberry syrup (recipe below)
- Coupe for glassware
- Strawberry, cut fancy for garnish
For the strawberry syrup:
- 1 cup strawberries, quartered
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
Instructions
For the cocktail:
- Combine all ingredients into a cocktail tin, top with ice and shake hard for about 15 seconds.
- Strain off the liquid into one side of the tin. After, discard the ice.
- Reseal the tin well so it doesn’t come apart. Then, shake again for 30-45 seconds.
- Open the tin and strain the drink into a chilled coupe. You should have a heavy foam on the top of the drink from the use of the egg white.
For the strawberry syrup:
- Place strawberries in a heat-proof bowl.
- In a saucepan, combine 1 sugar with water. Heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
- Pour hot syrup over the strawberries and let sit for 6 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Then, strain into a clean jar (reserve the strawberries for cocktail garnishes or for using as a delicious topping anywhere you like), cover and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
