Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.75 oz / 52 ml Meriwether Bourbon
  • 0.75 oz / 22 ml Fresh lemon juice
  • 0.5 oz / 15 ml Simple syrup
  • 0.5 oz / 15 ml Egg white optional
  • 2 Drops Angostura bitters
  • 1 Orange wheel and cocktail cherry for garnish

Equipment

  • Shaker tin, jigger, strainer, citrus press
  • Rocks glass or coupe

Method
 

  1. Add Meriwether Bourbon, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white to a shaker tin.
  2. Dry shake without ice for 10 seconds if using egg white.
  3. Add ice and shake hard for 12 to 15 seconds.
  4. Strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice, or strain into a chilled coupe.
  5. Add two drops of Angostura bitters on top.
  6. Garnish with an orange wheel and cocktail cherry.

Notes

For a cleaner tasting-room version, skip the egg white and serve over fresh ice. Keep the lemon fresh, bottled juice will flatten the cocktail.
