What in the world? It worked wonderfully. I used aquafaba and only shook it once. The Campari cuts through any richness of the honey, but only just enough to be balanced. I got a surprisingly thick and satisfying foam on top as well. I'd give it a 4.5, personally.

Interesting that not dry shaken despite having egg white. Means not very thick foam. Worth trying with a dry shake - I do enjoy a cocktail foam!
