1 large free range egg white
75g white caster sugar
200ml Olmeca Altos Plata Tequila
100ml triple sec
100ml cranberry juice
4 limes, juice
40ml sugar syrup
frozen cranberries and lime zest, to serve (optional)

Whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Add the sugar, a tablespoon at a time, whisking until smooth and glossy.
Pour the tequila, triple sec, cranberry juice, lime juice and sugar syrup into a blender suitable for crushing ice. Add 2 large handfuls of ice and whizz, then pour into a cocktail glass.
Add a swipe of meringue to half of the top of each glass. If you have a cook’s blow torch, toast it carefully until just golden. Garnish with a frozen cranberry and/or lime zest, if you like.
