Ingredients
 
 

  • 3.5 oz cloudy apple juice
  • 2.5 oz strong Earl Grey tea brewed and cooled
  • 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 0.75 oz cinnamon simple syrup
  • 0.25 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg white or 1/2 oz (15 ml) aquafaba
  • ground cinnamon and a dried apple chip to garnish

Instructions
 

  • Chill a short glass in the freezer while you make the drink.
  • Add the apple juice, cooled Earl Grey tea, cinnamon syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and egg white to a cocktail shaker without ice.
  • Shake hard for 15 seconds. This is the dry shake and it emulsifies the egg white and creates the foam.
  • Add a generous handful of ice and shake again for 15 seconds until well chilled.
  • Strain into the chilled glass.
  • Garnish with a dusting of ground cinnamon and a dried apple chip.

Notes

Cinnamon Syrup: To make the cinnamon syrup: combine 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water, and 2 cinnamon sticks in a saucepan. Simmer for 10 minutes, remove from heat, steep until cool, then strain. Full recipe at cinnamon simple syrup.
Brew the Earl Grey strong - at least 4 to 5 minutes - and let it cool completely before using.
Use cloudy apple juice rather than clear for a fuller, more rounded flavor.
For a vegan version, swap the egg white for 1/2 oz (15 ml) aquafaba.
