Ingredients: - 2 oz Junmai Ginjo Sake (chilled) - 1 oz Passion Fruit Juice (freshly squeezed and strained) - 0.5 oz Elderflower Liqueur - 0.5 oz Lemon Juice (freshly squeezed) - 1 teaspoon Simple Syrup (adjust to taste) - 1 Egg White (for a silky texture and frothy top) - Edible Flower Petals (for garnish, such as cherry blossom or pansy) - Ice Instructions: 1. Add the sake, passion fruit juice, elderflower liqueur, lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white into a cocktail shaker. 2. Begin with a dry shake (no ice) – this is to emulsify the egg white and create a smooth froth. 3. After shaking vigorously for 30 seconds, add a handful of ice to the shaker and shake again until the outside of the shaker feels cold – typically for another 30 seconds. 4. Double strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a chilled coupe glass to remove any ice shards and ensure a silky texture. 5. Garnish delicately with a few edible flower petals on the frothy top of the cocktail.
