Pro Tips

💪 The 12-Minute Shake

Henry Ramos employed "shaker boys" to shake each drink for 12 minutes. A dry shake followed by a wet shake gets you 90% there in 3-4 minutes total.

🌸 Orange Flower Water

This ingredient is non-negotiable – it provides the drink's signature floral aroma. Find it at Middle Eastern groceries or online. A little goes a long way.
