Ingredients

1

1 servings

  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 2 fluid ounces 100-proof bourbon whiskey
  • 1 fluid ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 4 drops orange bitters, or more to taste
  • 1 large egg white
  • ice cubes as needed

Instructions

  • Prepare simple syrup: Bring sugar and water to a simmer in a small pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved. Pour into a small bowl and let cool completely before using, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Make cocktail: Pour 3/4 fluid ounce simple syrup, bourbon, lemon juice, bitters, and egg white into a large cocktail shaker. Cover with a smaller cocktail shaker, or top, and give cocktail a "dry shake" without ice, about 30 seconds.
  • Add 3 ice cubes to bourbon mixture, cover, and shake vigorously until the shaker is very cold and the outside is frosty, about 45 seconds. Uncover and strain into a rocks glass containing 1 large ice cube.
