Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz butterfly pea flower-infused gin pre-infused for color effect
  • 3/4 oz fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz simple syrup
  • 1 large egg white for foam
  • Ice cubes for shaking

Instructions
 

  • In a cocktail shaker, combine the butterfly pea flower gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white. Shake without ice for about 15 seconds to create foam.
  • Add ice cubes to the shaker and shake again vigorously for another 15 seconds.
  • Strain the cocktail into a martini glass. Watch as the acidity of the lemon juice changes the drink from deep blue to a vibrant purple hue.
  • Optionally, garnish with a lemon twist or edible flowers for an elegant touch.

Notes

  • Infusing Gin: To make butterfly pea flower gin, steep 1 tablespoon of dried butterfly pea flowers in 1 cup of gin for 2-3 hours, then strain.
  • Vegan Option: Substitute egg white with aquafaba for a plant-based foam.
  • Serving Tip: This cocktail is best served immediately to enjoy the color transition effect.
