Turkey’s national drink is usually drunk neat or with water, but its anise flavours also work very well in a fruity cocktail. Serves one.

35ml raki (we use Yeni Raki Seri
15ml lime juice 
15ml lemon juice 
15ml sugar
25ml pineapple juice 
25ml egg white (just over half a white)

Put everything in a shaker with a handful of ice and shake hard for 10-15 seconds. Remove the ice, shake again for 10-15 seconds, until the egg white fully foams, then double strain into a chilled martini glass.
