Combine Scotch whisky, absinthe, fresh lemon juice, fresh lime juice, rich sugar syrup, and egg white in a shaker.
Add ice and SHAKE hard for 10–12 seconds.
Strain the mixture back into the shaker, discarding the ice.
DRY SHAKE vigorously without ice for 15–20 seconds to fully emulsify the egg white.
Have a chilled highball glass (no ice) and a bottle of soda water ready.
Slowly pour approximately two-thirds of the shaker contents from a height of 20–25cm into the glass, simultaneously pouring a thin stream of soda water with your other hand, merging both streams into one as they hit the glass.
Allow the cocktail to settle for at least 60 seconds - ideally place it in a freezer or glass froster during this time.
Slowly pour the remaining contents of the shaker into the glass. The head should rise dramatically above the rim like a soufflé.
Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim and serve immediately.
The dual-pour technique - merging the shaken cocktail and soda into a single falling stream - is key to building the fizz's signature soufflé head; the brief resting period in a froster allows the foam to set before the final pour crowns the glass.
