Instructions

Description: Inspired by the poignant beauty of Amsterdam, as depicted in "The Fault in Our Stars", this cocktail captures the city’s allure and the bittersweet essence of star-crossed love. With a palette of rich flavors and a garnish reminiscent of the city's iconic landscapes, this drink is both a tribute and a sensory journey. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Genever (Dutch gin) for a traditional Amsterdam base - 0.5 oz St. Germain elderflower liqueur to add a floral touch reminiscent of Amsterdam's gardens - 0.5 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice to balance the sweetness - 0.5 oz honey syrup (1 part honey, 1 part water) for a smooth, natural sweetness - 2 oz chilled chamomile tea to provide a soothing, aromatic finish - Dash of Angostura bitters to add depth and complexity Garnish: - Lemon twist to represent the journey's brightness - Edible star-shaped sugar crystals to symbolize the stars over Amsterdam Glass: - Serve in a coupe glass, allowing the delicate aromatics to be fully appreciated Method: 1. Combine the Genever, St. Germain, lemon juice, honey syrup, and chamomile tea in a shaker with ice. 2. Shake well until chilled and thoroughly mixed. 3. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. 4. Add a dash of Angostura bitters on top. 5. Garnish with a lemon twist and scatter the star-shaped sugar crystals over the surface to add a twinkling effect reminiscent of a starry night sky. Sip and reflect on life's beautiful impermanence, much like the fleeting moments shared by the story’s characters under the Amsterdam skyscape.
