Untitled Gin Experiment #1 »

The Clover Club

October 14, 2011 by Jen

If you have a few minutes today, go check out a guest post I did for Drink Philly on Philadelphia’s original cocktail, the Clover Club. It’s a fairly simple drink that’s easy to make and good place to start with egg white cocktails.

(recipe after the break)

2 oz dry gin (Plymouth or London Dry, preferably)
½ oz fresh lemon juice (half a lemon)
2 tsp raspberry syrup (recipe here)
¾ tsp superfine sugar
1 egg white

Add ingredients to shaker and shake vigorously without ice for one full minute to emulsify the egg. Add two ice cubes and shake again for 30 seconds to chill the drink, then pour it slowly into a coupe glass, remembering that the best part of the egg white will come at the end.
