Tips & Suggestions

Preparation

Preparation Tip 1

For added foam and a smoother texture, include egg white and use the dry shake method. Shake all the ingredients without ice first, then shake again with ice to chill; this technique helps create a stable foam and a well-blended body.

Preparation

Preparation Tip 2

Freeze fresh grapefruit juice into ice cubes and use them during the shake to amplify the cocktail’s flavour as it chills without diluting the citrus profile.
