A flip cocktail is a delicious combination of alcohol, aromatics, and whipped egg white. This version is made with gin infused with Earl Grey tea, featuring distinctive notes of bergamot, lemon juice, and maraschino syrup. Instead of fresh egg white, use safe egg white powder. It produces the same pleasant foam without the health risks. You'll need a chilled cocktail glass. Pour the cocktail into the glass over a splash of maraschino syrup to prevent the layers from mixing. It looks elegant and tastes incredible.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Infused gin:

Combine gin and Earl Grey tea in a non-reactive container; stir. Cover and let steep for 1 hour. Strain without pressing on the tea leaves. The infused gin can be stored tightly sealed for up to 3 weeks.
In a small bowl, stir together the dry egg white and warm water until foamy. Fill a shaker two-thirds full with ice and add 45 ml of infused gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, and the egg white mixture. Cover and shake vigorously until thoroughly combined and chilled, about 30 seconds.

The cocktail will be ready by the time the shaker fogs up. Pour maraschino syrup into the bottom of a martini glass. Strain the cocktail into the glass, making sure it's on top of the syrup. Add a twist of lemon zest. Drink.
Simple sugar syrup:

Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Alternatively, heat in the microwave. Cool the syrup to room temperature and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
