Valentine's Day Sour Raspberry cocktail in a coupe glass, centered on a white marble surface. The drink features two distinct layers: a pale pink raspberry base and a thick layer of white frothy foam on top, garnished with a delicate pink edible flower. The background shows a dark navy blue backdrop with warm golden bokeh lights creating a romantic ambiance. Pink rose petals are artfully scattered around the base of the glass, with a full pink rose positioned to the right side, softly out of focus.

Equipment

  • 1 Cocktail shaker (Used for foaming)
  • 1 Fine-mesh strainer (For removing seeds)
  • 1 Coupe glass (Chilled)

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Fresh raspberries - Muddled
  • 2 oz Raspberry vodka - Or gin
  • 1 oz Fresh lemon juice - Strained
  • ½ oz Simple syrup - Adjust to taste
  • 1 large Egg white - Or aquafaba
  • ½ cup Ice cubes - For shaking

Instructions 

  • Muddle the fresh raspberries in the base of a cocktail shaker until completely broken down.
  • Add the raspberry vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white to the shaker.
  • Shake the ingredients without ice for 30 seconds to aerate the egg white and create foam.
  • Add ice to the shaker and shake again for 20 seconds until the mixture is very cold.
  • Double strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe glass to ensure a smooth, seed-free texture.
  • Carefully layer the foam over the pink liquid, ensuring it stays at the top of the glass.
  • Garnish with whipped cream and an edible pink flower for a beautiful, festive presentation.

Notes

Use the 'dry shake' method for the thickest foam. Fresh raspberries provide a much brighter color and flavor than bottled syrups.
