Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 oz gin London dry or floral gin
  • 3/4 oz lemon juice fresh
  • 3/4 oz blackberry simple syrup
  • 1 egg white optional, for foam
  • Ice for shaking

Instructions
 

  • Chill a coupe glass in the freezer or fill with ice while you make the drink.
  • Add the gin, blackberry syrup, lemon juice, and egg white to a cocktail shaker without ice.
  • Shake hard for 15 seconds - this is the dry shake that creates the foam.
  • Add a generous handful of ice and shake again for 15 seconds until well chilled.
  • Tip the ice from the coupe glass and strain the cocktail in.
  • Garnish with fresh blackberries on a skewer.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, substitute 1 oz unsalted aquafaba for the egg white.
  • Blackberry simple syrup can be made ahead. Find the full recipe here.
