COCKTAIL ITALIAN LADY

ITALIAN LADY
This twist on a classic White Lady cocktail is very easy to recreate. Please don’t hesitate to make the Tangerine Oleo Saccharum yourself. It’s super simple.
Your palate and nose will be treated to an explosion of citrus aromas. You don’t need any lab equipment to extract the aromatic oils from your tangerines. A little time and sugar are all you need. It’s tangerine season right now. So let’s go!
COCKTAIL RECIPE:
45ml - 1½oz good quality TEQUILA
30ml - 1oz BERGAMOT LIQUEUR
30ml - 1oz TANGERINE OLEO SACCHARUM
22.5ml - ¾oz LEMON JUICE
1 EGG WHITE or other foamer e. g. aquafaba

Shake all ingredients with ice. Fine strain back into shaker and shake without ice. Yes first wet then dry shake. Reverse shake method. Pour into chilled coupe glass. Express orange oils and garnish with a orange zest.

For everyone wondering what tequila has to do with an Italian woman: I think nothing. Originally, I used an Italian gin. At some point, I spotted this bottle on my shelf and replaced the gin with this exquisite tequila. The agave in the tequila gives this drink a truly unique kick.

Cheers!
