A better idea, I think, is to use a proper higher-impedance
current source, and drive with a 100kHz sine wave, thereby
greatly reducing the ESL problem, which can otherwise be a
killer for the 1 to 30 milliohm region. Using a sine wave
also means the measured ESR can be compared with laboratory
meter readings. Otherwise, how would one compare sets of
square-wave readings with accurate lab instrument readings?

Synchronous detector?
