Instructions

The Eclipse Negroni is a celestial twist on the classic Negroni, introducing an intriguing visual effect and a subtle variation in flavor. Utilizing a spherification technique to encapsulate the sweet vermouth, this drink not only tantalizes the taste buds but also provides a visual spectacle, resembling a moon in the night sky when the sphere is gently placed in the darkened gin and Campari mix. **Glass:** Old-Fashioned Glass **Ingredients:** - 1 oz. Gin (preferably a dry style) - 1 oz. Campari - 1 oz. Sweet Vermouth, spherified - Orange peel, for garnish **For the Vermouth Sphere:** - 1 oz. Sweet Vermouth - 0.5g Sodium Alginate - 500ml Cold Water - 2.5g Calcium Lactate **Instructions:** 1. **Prepare the Vermouth Sphere:** - In a blender, mix the sweet vermouth with sodium alginate until fully dissolved. - In a separate bowl, dissolve calcium lactate in 500ml of cold water, stirring thoroughly. - Using a spherical mold or a teaspoon, carefully drip the vermouth mixture into the calcium lactate bath. It will immediately start to form a skin on contact, creating a sphere. - Let the spheres sit in the bath for about 3 minutes to fully form, then gently rinse them in water and keep them in a solution of sweet vermouth until needed. 2. **Assemble the Drink:** - In an Old-Fashioned glass filled with ice, combine the gin and Campari. Stir well to chill. - Carefully place a vermouth sphere in the center of the glass. The sphere should remain intact until it's deliberately burst by the drinker, releasing the vermouth. - Garnish with a twist of orange peel. **Serving Suggestion:** Serve with a small cocktail stick or straw to encourage your guests to burst the vermouth sphere and watch as the drink changes character, both visually and taste-wise, resembling an eclipse unfolding in the glass. Enjoy this sophisticated and interactive twist on a timeless classic!
