Instructions

In the spirit of celestial phenomena, the Eclipse Afterglow Margarita captures the essence of the solar eclipse, blending the fiery warmth of a sunset with the mysterious coolness of the moon's shadow. This innovative cocktail presents a layering technique that mirrors the gradual transition of an eclipse, offering both a visual and flavorful delight. **Glass:** Classic margarita glass, rimmed with black lava salt to represent the darkened rim of the eclipse. **Ingredients:** - 1 oz Silver Tequila (representing the sun) - 1 oz Mezcal (for the smoky shadow of the moon) - 1/2 oz Cointreau (the shimmering corona around the eclipse) - 3/4 oz Fresh Lime Juice (for the tangy brightness of the sun) - 3/4 oz Blackberry Puree (the dark core of the moon) - 1/2 oz Simple Syrup (to balance the tanginess) - A dash of Activated Charcoal Powder (for the celestial darkness) - Ice - Edible Gold Dust (to garnish, signifying the solar flares) **Instructions:** 1. Begin by chilling the margarita glass. Rim the edge with black lava salt, set aside. 2. In a shaker, combine the silver tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, simple syrup, and a tiny pinch (no more than 1/8 tsp) of activated charcoal. Shake well with ice until the mixture is chilled. 3. Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with crushed ice, filling it halfway. 4. In the same shaker, without rinsing, combine the mezcal, blackberry puree, and a touch more charcoal powder. Shake well with ice. 5. Carefully layer this dark mixture over the back of a spoon on top of the first mixture in the glass, creating a two-tone effect: bright below, dark above. 6. To finish, lightly sprinkle edible gold dust over the top to mimic the radiant solar flares of an eclipse. 7. Garnish with a lime wheel and a fresh blackberry on the rim. Enjoy the Eclipse Afterglow Margarita as the flavors transition from bright and tangy to smoky and dark, much like the phases of an eclipse, making for an unforgettable cocktail experience.
