If the point is to be explicit, than text is the solution. I've used "Log-in" since that's our current translation and because the "-" the words seem connected. If the Log-in is a button, than putting it between Search and Drawer is possible. If it's text, the text will separate the buttons and it looks bad. Having it on the first position encourages users to Log-in.
