Instructions

Description: The Celestial Cloudburst is a visually stunning cocktail that combines the elegance of gin, the subtle sweetness of elderflower, and the aromatic complexity of blue curaçao. The advanced technique used here is "spherification," which creates small, caviar-like spheres that burst with flavor in your mouth, resembling tiny raindrops. The cocktail is served in a coupe glass, offering a sophisticated presentation. Ingredients: - 2 oz gin - 0.75 oz elderflower liqueur - 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice - 0.25 oz simple syrup - 0.5 oz blue curaçao (for spherification) - 1g sodium alginate - 500ml distilled water - 5g calcium lactate - Edible silver glitter (optional, for a celestial effect) - Ice Technique: 1. **Spherification Preparation**: a. Dissolve 1g of sodium alginate in 500ml of distilled water to create an alginate bath. Blend with an immersion blender until fully dissolved. Let it sit to eliminate any air bubbles. b. In a separate bowl, mix 0.5 oz of blue curaçao with 5g of calcium lactate. Stir until fully dissolved. c. Using a dropper or syringe, carefully drop the blue curaçao mixture into the alginate bath, forming small spheres. Let them sit for a few minutes to set, then transfer to a clean water bath to rinse. 2. **Cocktail Preparation**: a. In a shaker, combine the gin, elderflower liqueur, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Add ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. b. Double strain the mixture to ensure a smooth texture. 3. **Presentation**: a. Pour the strained cocktail into a chilled coupe glass. b. Gently spoon a few blue curaçao spheres into the cocktail. c. Optionally, garnish with a pinch of edible silver glitter for an extra celestial touch. Serve immediately and enjoy the magical experience of the Celestial Cloudburst.
