Finish the drink with a light dusting of finely grated dark chocolate over the foam - just enough to add aromatic depth without overshadowing the cherry. Rest 2 skewered Luxardo maraschino cherry across the rim to reinforce the cocktail's identity and provide a visual link to the Cherry Heering foundation. The garnish elevates the experience with a gentle chocolate aroma and a bright cherry focal point while allowing the core flavours to remain the star.
Combine Cherry Heering, Black Tears Spiced Rum, fresh lemon juice, vanilla syrup, honey syrup, Angostura bitters, black walnut bitters, and pasteurised egg white in a shaker and dry shake vigorously to aerate and fully emulsify the egg white. Add ice and shake hard for 10–12 seconds until cold and silky. Double strain into a chilled 160 ml wide-mouth coupe, allowing the foam to settle into a smooth, velvety cap that sets the stage for the garnish.
