Notes

Using egg whites in cocktails:
While using raw egg white in cocktails is considered generally safe, I recommend using pasteurized egg whites from a carton for convenience and safety. 
If pasteurized egg whites don’t interest you or you want a vegan option, you can substitute 2-3 tablespoons of the liquid from canned chickpeas. This liquid is referred to as “aquafaba” and makes a great frothy addition to sour cocktails. 
Or, you just skip the foam altogether - it won't make a difference in the taste, just the texture.
