Instructions

Description: Carnival's Whisper is an elegant, refreshing cocktail that captures the festive spirit of Mardi Gras without being overly sweet. It features the sophisticated combination of floral gin, the herbal touch of thyme, and the tangy zing of fresh lemon, balanced by a hint of sparkling wine. Its light and buoyant character make it easy to sip, and its vivid colors echo the celebratory Mardi Gras palette. Ingredients: - 2 oz Dry Gin (preferably one with floral notes) - 1/2 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/2 oz Thyme Simple Syrup (lighter on sugar) - 2 oz Brut Sparkling Wine or Dry Prosecco - 1 Fresh Thyme Sprig (for garnish) - A few Edible Purple, Green, and Gold Glitters (for garnish; optional) - Ice Cubes Type of Glass: Champagne Flute or Coupe Glass Instructions: 1. Start by making the thyme simple syrup. In a saucepan, combine equal parts water and sugar (use less sugar for a less sweet syrup), add a few sprigs of thyme, and gently heat until the sugar is dissolved. Let the syrup steep and cool, then strain out the thyme. 2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes and add the dry gin, fresh lemon juice, and thyme simple syrup. 3. Shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into the glass, leaving enough room for the sparkling wine. 5. Top with the sparkling wine or dry prosecco, gently pouring to maintain effervescence. 6. Garnish with a fresh thyme sprig. If desired, add a pinch of edible glitter in purple, green, and gold atop the foam to evoke the Mardi Gras colors. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the subtle, herbaceous, and slightly tangy notes of Carnival's Whisper.
