Ingredients
The juice of an apple
The juice of half a lime
A touch of honey
10cl ginger ale
The zest of half a lime
1/2 egg white
A little zest for decoration
Mocktail preparation:
Step 1:
Wash the apple well, cut it into pieces, then run it through the juice extractor to obtain a fresh, natural juice. If you don't have an extractor, use 10cl of no-sugar-added apple juice. Choose cloudy juice, which is richer in flavour and aroma than filtered juice.
Step 2:
Wash the lime and finely grate the zest. Squeeze half the lime and pour the juice into a shaker with the honey and apple juice. Then add half the grated zest. Finally, add the egg white.
Step 3:
Close the shaker and shake for 10 seconds. This emulsifies the egg white and creates a creamy mousse.
Step 4:
Then add a handful of ice cubes to the shaker and shake again for about 15 seconds. This cools the mocktail and firms up the foam. Tip: for an even thicker foam, you can make a double dry shake (shake once without ice, leave for a few seconds, then shake again before adding the ice and shaking a third time).
Step 5:
Pour 10cl of ginger ale into a cocktail glass. Then strain and gently pour the contents of the shaker over the ginger ale.
Step 6:
Add a little lime zest on top for a finishing touch. You can also add a thin slice of apple or a slice of lemon as a garnish.
Taste immediately for maximum freshness and bubbles!
