Equipment

  • Jigger
  • Cocktail Shaker

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ounces gin
  • 1 ounce plum simple syrup
  • ½ ounce lemon juice
  • 1 egg white

Instructions
 

  • Add the ingredients, without ice, to a cocktail shaker and shake. This will help break up the egg white and get a foamy texture.
  • Add a scoop of ice and shake again for at least 30 seconds.

Notes

While a normal sour calls for 1 ounce of lemon juice, we found it to be overpowering and chose to reduce it to 1/2 ounce.
Plum simple syrup can be swapped out for plum juice, however you will lose some sweetness. The color also changes to more of a garnet red.
