  1. 01

    Pre-chill one clear narrow Collins glass and cut exactly one tiny coin-sized round disc of lemon zest.

    Dry-shake without ice for about 10 seconds, add solid cold ice, then shake hard again for 10–12 seconds.

    Fine-strain into the chilled Collins glass without serving ice, then add soda water slowly until the liquid reaches the rim.

  5. 05

    Let the foam set for about 45 seconds, then add the remaining soda gradually to raise a stable head only slightly above the rim.
