Instructions

Description: The Celestial Bloom is a visually stunning, flavor-layered cocktail that combines molecular gastronomy with classic mixology. The cocktail features a vibrant, edible hibiscus caviar made with reverse spherification, suspended in a nuanced, floral gin concoction. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin (preferably floral or botanical) - 1 oz Elderflower liqueur - 1 oz Fresh lemon juice - 0.5 oz Simple syrup - 1 Hibiscus tea bag - 1 Gram sodium alginate - 5 Grams calcium lactate - 1 Cup distilled water - Edible glitter (optional for a galaxy effect) Type of Glass: Martini glass Instructions: 1. **Hibiscus Caviar**: - Steep the hibiscus tea bag in a cup of hot water for 5 minutes. Let it cool. - Mix the cooled hibiscus tea with 0.5 grams of sodium alginate using an immersion blender until fully dissolved. Let it rest to remove air bubbles. - Dissolve 5 grams of calcium lactate in a cup of distilled water in a separate bowl. - Using a dropper, gently drop the hibiscus-alginate mixture into the calcium lactate solution, forming small caviar-sized spheres. Allow them to sit for about 1-2 minutes to set. - Rinse the beads in a bowl of clean distilled water to remove any residual calcium lactate. 2. **Cocktail**: - In a shaker, combine the gin, elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup with ice. Shake well until chilled. - Strain the mixture into a well-chilled martini glass. 3. **Assembly**: - Carefully spoon a small amount of hibiscus caviar into the center of the drink. - Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of edible glitter over the surface for a celestial effect. Enjoy the Celestial Bloom, a cocktail that offers a multi-sensorial experience, blending classic flavors with modern mixology techniques.
