Method

How to make Grand White Lady

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

    Pre-chill a clear coupe and cut exactly one very narrow short strip of orange zest.

  2. 02

    Measure the gin, cognac orange liqueur, lemon juice, rich syrup, and pasteurized egg white into a shaker.

  3. 03

    Fill the shaker with solid cold ice and shake vigorously until chilled.

  4. 04

    Strain the mixture back into the empty shaker and dry-shake without ice to build a compact silky foam.

  5. 05

    Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so the foam settles evenly without ice fragments.

    Express the single narrow orange twist over the surface, secure it neatly at the rim, and serve without any other garnish.
