Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 chamomile tea bags
- 2 oz barrel-aged Old Tom Gin
- 1 large egg
- 1 to 2 dashes Bolivar or Angostura bitters
- Chamomile flowers, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Start by making chamomile syrup: Combine sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until sugar is completely dissolved, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and add the tea bags. Let them steep, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 6 minutes. Discard the tea bags and allow the syrup to cool completely.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, egg, and 3/4 ounce chamomile syrup; then add ice. Cover the shaker and shake vigorously until thoroughly mixed and very foamy, for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Strain the mixture into a coup glass and garnish with a few dashes of bitters and chamomile flowers, if desired. Serve immediately.
