Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker
  • Strainer
  • Jigger
  • Juicer
  • Coupe or cocktail glass

Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz Pisco
  • 1 oz fresh lime juice
  • 3/4 oz simple syrup
  • 1 oz cucumber juice freshly juiced
  • 1 ea egg white optional
  • Cucumber slices for garnish
  • Angostura bitters for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Start by juicing fresh cucumbers until you have 1 oz (30 ml) of cucumber juice. Strain the juice to remove any pulp for a smooth texture.
  • In a cocktail shaker, add the Pisco, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, cucumber juice, and egg white (if using).
  • Seal the shaker and shake vigorously without ice for about 15 seconds. This helps to emulsify the egg white, creating a frothy texture.
  • Add ice to the shaker and shake again for another 15-20 seconds until well-chilled.
  • Double strain the mixture into a chilled coupe or cocktail glass to ensure a smooth pour.
  • Add a few drops of Angostura bitters on top of the foam and garnish with a slice of cucumber.

Notes

For the best flavor, use fresh ingredients and adjust the sweetener to your taste. The egg white is optional but adds a lovely frothy texture to the cocktail.
