Instructions

Inspired by the celestial dance, Eclipse Noir is a visually stunning cocktail that features a dramatic color transformation and a combination of flavors as deep as the night sky. Utilizing an advanced mixology technique known as "ph color change," this cocktail surprises and delights with its evolving hues and complex taste profile. Ingredients: - 1 ½ oz Blended Scotch Whisky - ½ oz Crème de Cassis - ½ oz Fresh lemon juice - 1 oz Butterfly pea flower tea syrup (chilled) - 2 dashes of Angostura bitters - Sparkling water - Edible gold dust (for garnish) Glass: - Coupe glass Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing the butterfly pea flower tea syrup. Steep butterfly pea flowers in hot water for 5 minutes. Strain and mix the resulting blue tea with equal parts of sugar to create a syrup. Chill before use. 2. In a shaker filled with ice, combine the blended Scotch whisky, crème de cassis, lemon juice, and butterfly pea flower tea syrup. Shake vigorously until well-chilled. 3. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. You'll notice the drink has a deep purple hue due to the acidity of the lemon juice interacting with the butterfly pea flower tea syrup. 4. Carefully top off the cocktail with a splash of sparkling water to add effervescence. This will cause a light layering effect, simulating the "eclipse" in the glass. 5. Garnish with a sprinkle of edible gold dust over the top to mimic the stars in the night sky. Advanced Technique: The ph color change is the highlight of this drink, achieved by combining the acidic lemon juice with the naturally pH-sensitive butterfly pea flower tea syrup. As the lemon juice lowers the pH, the vivid blue of the butterfly pea changes to a deep, mysterious purple, symbolizing the eclipse. The addition of sparkling water not only elevates the sensory experience but also contributes to the visual effect, creating a mesmerizing, gradient-like layering that resembles the phases of an eclipse. Eclipse Noir is a sophisticated cocktail that promises a journey through sight, taste, and aroma, making it a perfect choice for those seeking to explore the boundaries of modern mixology.
