Maddie, one of the bartenders at Au Comptoir, spun into action, pouring the drink into a shaker with a soft brass patina. A few vigorous shakes, understated—in keeping with the elegant brass of the shakers and the surroundings. A slap to the top to release it. The swift pour into a short glass, rimmed with salt, garnished with dried lime and candied ginger.
