xiphiasInstead, it ended up looking like, and having the exact texture of, lemon meringue pie. Except that it tastes like a margarita.
I just have to make sure that it's repeatable.
Okay. Here's what I did, partially for you, and partially for my own memory.
1 oz Jose Quervo Tradicianal
1/2 oz Cointreau
Juice of 2 limes
Juice of 1 lemon
1 oz raw blue agave syrup, dark. (That's a syrup made from agave nectar; it's a sweetener. You can get it at Whole Foods, next to the honey.)
1 egg white
1 pinch of powdered agar agar
Shake in cocktail shaker, hard, to foam the white.
Pour into large ramekin (your ramekin may vary -- we've got two ramekin sizes, and this is the larger one.)
When I did this, the foam stayed on top.
Put in microwave, and nuke for two minutes. (Your microwave may vary. You probably want to do it for a shorter period of time. Our microwave is low-powered.)
Take out, and let cool to room temperature.
Right now, after a couple hours of cooling, it's perfect. It may get too solid later, so, for the record, it's probably about 2 and a half hours after I nuked it, and it's really good.
