cyn city

1 oz Gin (Beefeater)
1 oz Cynar
3/4 oz Simple Syrup
3/4 oz Lemon Juice
1 Egg White

Shake one round without ice and one round with ice, strain into a coupe, and garnish with a lemon twist.
Two Thursdays ago, I returned to the online recipe flashcards for San Diego's Lion's Share. There, I was lured in by the Cyn City as a gin-Cynar egg white Sour that I was able to date to around 2016 via Flickr and other online mentions. Once prepared, the Cyn City gave forth a lemon and caramel bouquet. Next, the lemon and caramel notes continued on into the sip, and the swallow was a medley of gin, herbal, and minty flavors.
