Maple Classic Gin Fizz

2 oz Gin
¾ oz Lemon juice
½ oz maple syrup
1 egg white
Garnish with lemon twist and mint (optional)

Soda water

Add all ingredients without ice to a shaker and shake.  This lets the protein in the egg begin to form foam instead of being diluted by the ice.
Then add ice and shake again. This cools the drink and strengthens the foam. Strain it into the glass, and you'll get a thick, white frothy layer.
Serve and garnish with mint if desired.
