How to make it
Dry shake
Shake the gin, lemon, syrup and egg white without ice for 10 seconds.

Add ice and shake hard until chilled.
Strain and finish
Strain over fresh ice in a rocks glass. Dot the bitters onto the foam and add a lemon wheel.
The bitters on top are as much for the nose as the taste.
