Ingredients

  • 2 ounces Pisco
  • 1 ounces grapefruit juice
  • 1 ounces lime juice
  • ¾ ounces simple syrup
  • 1 large egg white (see substitution in the notes)
  • grapefruit slice or lime wedge garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Place all of the ingredients into a cocktail shaker and dry shake for 8-10 seconds.
  • Add some fresh ice to the shaker and shake again for another 8-10 seconds until everything is nice and cold. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into your favorite cocktail glass. Garnish with a slice of citrus if desired and enjoy!

Notes

Egg White Substitution: An alternative to adding egg white to cocktails is to substitute aquafaba instead. Aquafaba is the “bean liquid” usually from garbanzo beans/chickpeas. Simply substitute 1-2 tablespoon of aquafaba for 1 egg white.
The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) considers it safe to use raw eggs if they are pasteurized. Bottom Line: Raw eggs may contain a type of pathogenic bacteria called Salmonella, which can cause food poisoning. However, the risk of an egg being contaminated is quite low. Please proceed at your own risk and decide if you are ok with this. I have never had an issue.
