Ingredients

  • 2 oz vodka
  • ¾ oz fresh lemon juice
  • ¾ oz simple syrup
  • 1 egg white (optional)

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to a cocktail shaker without ice. Shake for 30 seconds. Add ice and shake for 30 seconds. Strain into a chilled coupe glass and add a lemon slice as garnish.

Notes

  • Use a vodka you like as the flavor comes from it.
  • Use freshly squeezed lemon juice. Bottled lemon juice just isn't as good.
  • You can replace the lemon juice with lime juice if you prefer.
  • Do a dry shake first before adding the ice which cools the drink but strengthens the foam.
  • Chill the glass so it remains cold for longer.
