Method

Step by step

Prepare your Mise en Place.
Prepare your bottle setup.
Chill the serving glass with either crushed ice or ice cubes. Or place it in a fridge or freezer.
Prepare your garnish.
Add all the ingredients (except the egg white!) into the taller part of the Tin-in-Tin shaker.
Add the egg white into the mixer tin.
Set the speed of the spindle mixer to the lowest setting. Otherwise, it might spill over very quickly!
Dry blend the ingredients in the blender for about 10 seconds. If you want to dry shake instead, do it for roughly 20 seconds.
Take the chilled glass out of the fridge/freezer. If you used ice to chill the serving glass, remove everything from the glass.
Add around 4 to 5 ice cubes into the serving glass.
Strain into the serving glass.
Add your garnish.
Clean up your working station.

Cut the orange zest into a diamond shape. Squeeze the zest a little, to release the oils of the zest over the drink. Place it onto the rim of the glass.
