Smidgen Podcast Producer Catherine introduced Anne to this cocktail on season five, episode five of Smidgen: Three New Ways to Use Olive Oil. Anne drizzled Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil on vanilla ice cream (do it. right now.) Catherine responded with, “I’ll see your ice cream drizzle and raise you a cocktail.” Literally. She shook and sipped this cocktail on the pod, and it was simply amazing. Adapted from the Feed Feed’s Gin Sour, this cocktail benefits from the pleasant bitterness of a good-quality extra virgin olive oil and pairs it alongside the tang from lemon and briny gin. Creamy egg white seals the deal.
