Written By Daniel Zajic

SILVER FOX

  • 1½ oz. / 45 ml. gin

  • ¾ oz. / 22.5 ml. fresh lemon juice

  • ½ oz. / 15 ml. orgeat

  • 1 fresh egg white

  • soda water, to top

  • ½ oz. / 15 ml. amaretto, to float

METHOD
add all ingredients to shaker tin / shake without ice (“dry shake”) / add ice / shake until chilled / strain into a glass / top with soda water / float amaretto / no garnish

ABOUT
This cocktail was created by Richard Boccato of Dutch Kills in New York City and found in Sasha Petraske’s “Regarding Cocktails.” It has strong similarities to the classic Silver Fizz, which uses simple syrup instead of orgeat. I love the multiple layers of almond flavor from the orgeat and amaretto. Cheers y’all!
