Notes

  • Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor and brightness.
  • Ensure the egg white is fresh and handled safely for consumption in cocktails.
  • Blueberry syrup can be homemade or store-bought; homemade syrup allows for customization of sweetness.
  • Shake vigorously to create a good foam from the egg white for that classic sour texture.
  • For a vegan version, omit the egg white or substitute with aquafaba.
