Instructions

  1. 1

    Add gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, cream, egg white and vanilla extract to a cocktail shaker.

  2. 2

    Shake hard without ice for about 10 seconds to whip the egg.

  3. 3

    Add ice to the shaker.

  4. 4

    Shake again for 10-15 seconds, until the shaker feels very cold.

  5. 5

    Strain into a highball glass filled with fresh ice cubes.

  6. 6

    Top with soda water.

  7. 7

    Give it one gentle stir.

Why shake? Lemon juice needs a hard shake to mix and chill properly; cream blends in smoothly only with a hard shake; the egg white needs a dry shake first to turn silky.
