Orange Blossom Tequila Sour

Reposado tequila shaken with fresh orange, a little lime and agave, and an egg white that whips into a silky cap, finished with three dots of bitters. A sour with a tequila backbone and a sweater on.

The preparation

5 steps, about 4 minutes start to finish.

  1. 01

    1. Combine the tequila, orange juice, lime juice, agave syrup and egg white in a shaker. No ice yet.

  2. 02

    2. DRY SHAKE: hard for 15 seconds.

  3. 03

    3. WET SHAKE: add ice and shake hard another 15 seconds.

  4. 04

    4. Double strain into a chilled coupe and let the foam rise.

  5. 05

    5. Dot three drops of Angostura on the foam and express the orange twist over the top.

lightbulb The chef's notes

“Egg white foams best without ice, so shake it naked first, then chill it. Aquafaba is a good swap if anyone would rather skip the egg. Squeeze the orange right before you shake.”
