Much more classy than your standard whiskey sour, and perfect for long, hot evenings. Serves one.
50ml light Irish whiskey (we like Mitchell & Son’s Green Spot)
Juice of ½ lemon
2 tsp white sugar
1 egg white
1 dash Pernod (or similar anise)
Dash of soda, to top
Dry shake the whiskey, lemon juice, sugar and egg white, add ice and shake again. (If you don’t have a shaker, use a jam jar with lid or a flask.) Swirl the Pernod around a small rocks glass, strain in the mix and top with a dash of soda.
