Madeira Sour

Citrus, spice and silk

Tim Tam Tum with fresh lemon and a touch of bourbon: a bright, elegant way to discover its notes of fruit and spice.

Ingredients

Makes1 coupe1 coupe
  • 50 mlTim Tam Tum
  • 25 mlLemon juice, freshly squeezed
  • 15 mlBourbon
  • 15 mlPasteurised egg white (optional)
  • Ice

Method

  1. Chill a coupe. Add the Tim Tam Tum, lemon juice, bourbon and, if using, the egg white to a shaker.
  2. If using egg white, dry-shake for 10 seconds without ice to build the foam.
  3. Fill with ice and shake for another 12 to 15 seconds.
  4. Double-strain into the chilled coupe. Express the orange peel over the top and use it to garnish.

Why it works
Lemon balances the sweetness of the liqueur, and bourbon adds body without masking the fruit and spice.
Tip
Start with 25 ml of lemon and adjust to taste. Without egg white, skip the dry shake.
To serve
A well-chilled coupe, with an even foam if you use egg white.
Meet the liqueur

An alcoholic drink, for adults only. Enjoy it slowly and in moderation.
