Boulevardier of Broken Dreams

Print Recipe

Boulevardier of Broken Dreams

Inspired by the New York Sour and the Boulevardier, Des Moines based bartender Charley Johnson of Clyde's Fine Diner mixed up a cocktail sure to be a local classic. Charley lightened up deep flavors with fresh lime juice and created a rich, smooth mouth feel with the egg white. #incharleywetrust

Equipment

  • Cocktail Shaker
  • Cocktail Jigger
  • Hawthorne Strainer
  • Small Mesh Sieve

Ingredients

  • 1.5 ounces Bourbon Whiskey
  • 3/4 ounce Campari
  • 1/2 ounce Sweet Vermouth
  • 1/2 ounce Lime Juice Fresh squeezed
  • 1/2 ounce Simple Syrup
  • 1 ounce Red Wine
  • 1 each Egg White
  • Ice

Instructions

  • Separate one egg and place the egg white in a small dish and set aside. Discard the yolk.
  • Combine all the ingredients EXCEPT the egg white in the cocktail shaker.
  • Add a medium scoop of ice and shake vigorously for 10 to 15 seconds.
  • Use the Hawthorne strainer AND a sieve to strain the cocktail into the smaller half of the shaker and discard the ice. If you are using a three piece shaker, you should strain your cocktail into its separate glass.
  • Combine the shaken cocktail and the egg white into the shaker. Do not add ice. "Dry shake" -shaking the cocktail without ice- for 15 seconds to froth the egg white.
  • Pour the cocktail into your coupe or favorite cocktail glass. Cheers!

Notes

Simple syrup is a 6 Degrees of Delicious pantry staple. Combine equal parts white granulated sugar and water in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium low heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Cool and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
