Sneha's Recipe: Egg Whites

This non-alcoholic take on a whiskey sour, made with Assam leaf tea for a bourbon-like flavor. It’s so refreshing and a perfect non-alcoholic alternative for a cocktail.

This whiskey sour mocktail has all the refreshing flavors of the traditional cocktail but without any alcohol! The combination of tart lemon has a delicious flavor profile that can be enjoyed at any time of day. Thanks to non-alcoholic whiskey, this mocktail is about as close as you can get to the real thing!

Serves One
Ingredients
25Ml Lemon Juice
½ Egg White
¾ Tablespoons sugar syrup, or to taste
Ice Cubes
1 Lemon Slice or Orange Slice to serve
For the infusion
½ Teaspoon Assam Tea Leaves
¼ Teaspoon Vanilla Extract - optional

Method

First, make the infusion. Tip the tea leaves into a heatproof teapot or jug and pour over 150ml boiled water from the kettle. Immediately strain through a fine mesh sieve into a second heatproof jug, discarding the tea leaves, so the tea doesn’t become too strong. Add the vanilla ( I did not add this) and leave to cool.

Pour 150ml of the cooled tea infusion into a cocktail shaker, then add the lemon juice, egg white, sugar syrup ( I did not add and it tasted just as good) and a handful of ice. Shake until the outside of the shaker feels very cold.

Strain the mocktail into an ice-filled tumbler, then garnish with a slice of lemon or a orange slice, to serve in the style of a classic whiskey sour.

My Notes
I did not add any sugar syrup and it tasted just as good. Loved this drink.
