- 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.
