treaty-of-paris-four-seasons--dallas-crdt-tkTea tannins bring an underlying dryness to this frothy Cognac cocktail from Dallas.

1½ oz. Courvoisier VSOP Cognac
1¼ oz. earl grey tea syrup
¾ oz. fresh lemon juice
1 fresh egg white (pasteurized if you like)
Brut Champagne
Earl grey tea
Tools: shaker, strainer
Glass: coupe
Garnish: finely crushed earl grey tea leaves

Combine the first 4 ingredients in a shaker and shake vigorously without ice to emulsify the egg white. Add ice and shake again to chill. Double strain into a coupe and slowly pour about 2 ounces of Champagne on top. Garnish.

Earl Grey Tea Syrup: Mix 1 cup of boiling water and 1 cup of sugar and stir until the sugar is almost completely dissolved. When it reaches this point and the mixture is still super hot, add a few sachets of loose leaf earl grey tea leaves. Steep it for about 20 minutes to get the most concentrated flavor. Strain and let cool before using.
