Instructions

This innovative cocktail takes a bold, modern spin on the classic flavors of prohibition-era libations. Igniting the senses with its depth and complexity, the Eclipse of the 21st is a testament to the art of mixology in the modern age, blending the smokiness of mezcal with the richness of aged rum, highlighted by the subtle sweetness of fig and the sharpness of lime. It's a daring dance of flavors that will transport you back to the roaring '20s, with a twist that firmly plants your feet in the present. Ingredients: - 1 oz Mezcal (for its smoky undernotes) - 1 oz Aged Rum (for a smooth, rich finish) - 0.5 oz Fig Syrup (homemade or store-bought for a touch of sweetness) - 0.5 oz Fresh Lime Juice (for a citrus kick) - 2 Dashes of Orange Bitters (for a hint of complexity) - Egg White (for a silky texture) - Garnish: Charred Orange Wheel and a Sprig of Thyme Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the mezcal, aged rum, fig syrup, fresh lime juice, orange bitters, and egg white. 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to capture any residual ice shards or pulp. 5. Garnish with a charred orange wheel and a sprig of thyme for an aromatic finish. Serving Glass: - Serve in a chilled coupe glass to maintain the elegance of the prohibition era while showcasing the modern complexity of the cocktail. The Eclipse of the 21st is more than a drink; it's a journey through time, connecting the past and the present with each sip. Perfect for sophisticated gatherings or a quiet night in, it's sure to become a timeless classic in its own right.
