Instructions

Unveil the enchanting flavors of the Mediterranean with the Aegean Mystique, a sophisticated cocktail that employs the advanced mixology technique of fat-washing to infuse olive oil's velvety texture and subtle taste into the spirit, capturing the essence of the Aegean Sea. This innovative drink is a harmonious blend of regional flavors, featuring the crisp, anise-flavored spirit of Skinos Mastiha, enhanced with the botanicals of a premium gin, and the bright, citrus notes of fresh lemon, all balanced with a touch of herbal sweetness. The Aegean Mystique is not just a cocktail; it's an experience, served in a chilled Nick & Nora glass, to transport you to the breezy, sun-kissed Greek coastlines. Ingredients: - 2 oz Olive Oil Washed Gin (see instructions below) - 0.5 oz Skinos Mastiha Liqueur - 0.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 0.25 oz Simple Syrup - 1 Egg White - A dash of Orange Bitters - Garnish: A sprig of fresh rosemary and an olive Instructions for Olive Oil Washed Gin: 1. Combine 200ml of a premium gin with 50ml of high-quality extra virgin olive oil in a sealable container. 2. Let the mixture infuse at room temperature for 24 hours, stirring occasionally. 3. Place the container in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours. The olive oil will solidify at the top. 4. Carefully remove the solidified olive oil, and strain the gin through a cheesecloth to ensure clarity. Cocktail Preparation: 1. In a shaker, combine the olive oil washed gin, Skinos Mastiha liqueur, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white. 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. 4. Double-strain into a chilled Nick & Nora glass to remove any ice shards and ensure a smooth foam. 5. Add a dash of orange bitters to the foam. 6. Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary and an olive on a cocktail stick. Serving Suggestion: Enjoy the Aegean Mystique as a luxurious pre-dinner aperitif or a sophisticated centerpiece for a themed cocktail evening, letting its complex layers of flavor whisk you away to the shores of the Aegean with every sip.
