Followed the recipe exactly though I wasn’t sure about not dry shaking egg whites so ice-shook for a long 35 seconds. Came out luxuriously silky smooth, sweet-but-but-not-too-sweet. Fuchsia with pink foam, which delighted the wife. No sage flavor so maybe I need to ball the leaves before muddling next time.
A lot to like in this drink. Quite flavorful, if arguably a bit intense. Suggests more sweetness than it really has. The aftertaste is relatively dry. The color I got was more fuchsia than the light orange in the photo. (2 Feb 2022, 3:43p)
I was just about to comment that my cocktail had a much pinker hue than the photo shown! I wonder if the cocktail in the photo was made without blood orange juice.
