Hazardous ingredients

Pasteurised egg white is potentially hazardous to those with allergy or intolerance.

Review:

It's a bit of a faff to make but it's worth the clogged sink drain from the raspberry shrapnel. Using raspberry syrup and especially raspberry jam in a Clover Club introduces cooked "jammy" notes, while this can be delicious (see Julie Reiner's Clover Club), I like to retain and hero fresh berry flavours.

History:

My version of a classic .
