This stripped-down version of the Midori Sour balances the liqueur's candied honeydew sweetness against sharp lime acidity, creating a drink that reads almost like a melon-flavored citrus curd. The egg white adds a silky, frothy texture that tempers the brightness and gives the cocktail a creamy body without dairy. It's unapologetically sweet but not cloying, with the lime doing heavy lifting to keep the melon flavor from veering into syrupy territory.
