Or what has been your go to lately? I’m usually a whiskey and ginger kinda guy but I’m trying to branch out a little these days. What’re you drinking?
Currently sipping on a Paloma:
- 1.5 oz Tequila (blanco)
- .5oz lime juice
- 4 oz Grapefruit soda (Jarritos today)
- Pinch of salt
I’ve never heard of putting an egg white in those. What does that do?
Adds texture, almost creamy. Shake the hell out of the drink until it gets a nice foam topping.
That sounds pretty gross to be honest. Is it like meringue?
You can use Acquafaba instead (chick pea water). That actually works at least just as well, no taste, perfect texture. Many barkeeps prefer it from what I hear.
Try it before deciding. It’s really good. Dry shake first, then put ice and shake again. I’ll take a whiskey sour any way someone wants to make it, but for an amaretto/bourbon sour an egg white is essential, it is so much better with it than without.
