How to make it

5 STEPS · ~5 MIN
  1. 01
    Dry-shake
    2 oz gin, 0.5 oz lemon juice, 0.5 oz lime juice, 1 oz simple syrup (1:1), 1 oz heavy cream, 0.5 oz egg white, 3 drops orange flower water in a shaker without ice for 30 seconds.
  2. 02
    Shake
    Add ice. Hard, 90+ seconds — critical for the signature foam.
  3. 03
    Strain
    Into a chilled Collins glass, no ice.
  4. 04
    Top
    Slowly pour 1 oz soda water down the side; the foam rises above the rim.
  5. 05
    Serve
    Insert a straw and serve immediately.
