I'm still looking for a name -- let me know if you conjure one.<br /><br />Recipe:<br /><br />2.5 oz gin (used Tanq, but am sure North Shore or Plymouth would be a bit less massive on the juniper/citrus)<br /><br />1 oz lime (maybe lemon next time)<br /><br />scant 1 oz rosemary syrup<br /><br />1 egg white<br /><br />1 dash Regan's #6 orange bitters<br /><br />dry shake, real shake, strain. Delicious! If you prefer your cocktail significantly drier, cut back on the rosemary syrup to 3/4 oz.<br /><br />--JaredAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921069825964741149.post-22131078176052022422008-10-31T20:15:00.000-05:002008-10-31T20:15:00.000-05:00Troy's recipe makes for an amazing drink.--JaredTroy's recipe makes for an amazing drink.<BR/><BR/>--JaredAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921069825964741149.post-3911979457246701802007-11-01T11:15:00.000-05:002007-11-01T11:15:00.000-05:00Hi Troy!

I had tried to stop in and see you on Tuesday night before I put up my post, but you were off. I'm so glad to see you on here! Thanks again.<BR/><BR/>PS, at The Alembic in SF, they got great froth by using a hand-held mixer/foamer thing - it went way beyond shaking. I ordered a Ramos Gin Fizz and it was a glass full of froth, it was fantastic.~Sonja~https://www.blogger.com/profile/14056245701542185828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921069825964741149.post-38874746588610455162007-11-01T02:50:00.000-05:002007-11-01T02:50:00.000-05:00Sonja,This is my favorite blog entry so far!

If I make this version of a White Lady at home here's my recipe:<BR/><BR/>3/4 oz. lemon juice<BR/>1/2 oz. simple syrup<BR/>3/4 oz. Cointreau<BR/>1 egg white<BR/>1 1/2 oz. Beefeater Gin (although North Shore would make a great substitute, I'm sure)<BR/><BR/>Combine all ingredients (along with large ice cubes) and shake*. Pour into a martini shell coated with an inch of superfine sugar along the outside of the glass. Garnish with a long lemon twist.<BR/><BR/>Because of this drink, I've wanted to try adding egg whites to a Margarita and serving the same way.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>*This shake is not like shaking moroccas. It's a shake with the force of an NFL linebacker behind it. I like the froth to be about an inch thick once it's poured into the martini shell.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
