Margarita o2

Margareta with a vanilla and lime cappuccino foam!!!!
Recently I have been reading and digesting lots of information on this subject.
I am writing this blog to encourage ideas on this subject and to share my own creations.

So my first attempt at a molecular cocktail was my own recipe of a Margareta with a vanilla and lime cappuccino foam.

The recipe;
For the margarita,
2 shot of good tequila
1 shot of triple sec.
1 shot of gomme (this may need adjusting due to taste and sweetness of the limes)
Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass (martini glass)

The cappuccino foam,
One egg white
1/2 shot of lime
1 shot of vanilla syrup

Add all this to a Boston tin and foam under a coffee steam wand like you would milk for a cappuccino!

One thing that is important here is to add enough ice to keep the solution cool or you will cook the egg white!
(I think this may work even better in an isi whipper but I don’t have one, yet!)

Spoon the foam on to the martini and flame lime oils over the top and grate some lime zest onto the foam for decoration.

Here is that pic! The colour is slightly off as this was taken on a mobile as the drink was an impromptu invention!!!

P.S thanks to squiff for the pic.

Thanks for reading, if you are?
