A silky, frothy cocktail combining fresh egg whites and full-fat coconut cream with white rum and lime juice for a tropical, indulgent drink that’s quick and easy to make.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large egg whites, room temperature (about 60 ml or 2 oz)
  • 1 oz (30 ml) full-fat canned coconut cream
  • 1.5 oz (45 ml) white rum
  • 0.75 oz (22 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 0.5 oz (15 ml) simple syrup
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters (optional)
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Separate the egg whites from 2 large eggs, ensuring no yolk is included. Let them come to room temperature if refrigerated.
  2. If making simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan, heat until sugar dissolves, then cool.
  3. Juice fresh limes to obtain about 0.75 oz (22 ml) of juice and strain out seeds.
  4. Add egg whites, white rum, coconut cream, lime juice, simple syrup, and bitters (if using) to a cocktail shaker.
  5. Dry shake vigorously without ice for 15-20 seconds to build frothy egg white foam.
  6. Add ice cubes to the shaker and shake again for 20-30 seconds until the shaker is frosty and cold.
  7. Strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled coupe or martini glass.
  8. Garnish with a thin lime wheel or toasted coconut flakes.

Notes

Use fresh, room temperature egg whites for best foam. Dry shake before adding ice to build froth. Avoid over-shaking with ice to prevent excessive foam bubbles. Pasteurized egg whites or aquafaba can be used as safer alternatives. Coconut cream is preferred over coconut milk for richer texture.
