Instructions

Citrus Smoke Rising captures the essence of a refreshing, smoky, and slightly creamy concoction that tantalizes the taste buds and indulges the senses in a unique blend of flavors. This cocktail is a harmonious blend of the earthy tones of mezcal with the bright and zesty notes of fresh citrus, balanced delicately with the silky texture provided by egg white. Served in an elegant coupe glass, it's the perfect drink for those who appreciate the sophistication of mezcal and the invigorating freshness of citrus. Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal - 1 oz Fresh lime juice - 1/2 oz Fresh orange juice - 1/2 oz Agave syrup - 1 Egg white - 2 Dashes of orange bitters - Ice - A thin slice of orange or a twist, for garnish - A pinch of smoked paprika, for garnish Instructions: 1. In a shaker, combine the mezcal, fresh lime juice, fresh orange juice, agave syrup, and egg white. Ensure there's no ice in the shaker at this stage. 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds. This process is crucial for emulsifying the egg white and creating a smooth, frothy texture. 3. Add a generous amount of ice to the shaker and shake again, this time vigorously for about 10 seconds, chilling the mixture and ensuring a well-integrated blend of flavors. 4. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled coupe glass. This will ensure a smooth, froth-topped drink, free of ice chips or unwanted residue. 5. Garnish with a thin slice of orange or an elegant twist of orange peel. This not only adds to the visual appeal but also introduces a subtle aroma that complements the drink's flavors. 6. For a final touch, lightly sprinkle a pinch of smoked paprika over the frothy top. This not only adds a hint of smoky flavor that echoes the mezcal's character but also provides a visually striking contrast. Citrus Smoke Rising is more than just a drink; it's an experience. The smoky depth of the mezcal, combined with the refreshing citrus notes and the creamy texture afforded by the egg white, makes for a sophisticated and memorable cocktail. Serve and enjoy the balance of flavors that dance on the palate, evoking the spirit of innovation and creativity.
