Instructions

The Eclipse of the Agave is a visually stunning cocktail that plays with layers and the intriguing combination of tequila and activated charcoal for a cosmic presentation. The drink begins with a bright base, representing the sun, which is then cloaked by the dark "moon" layer, offering a sophisticated balance of smokiness, sweetness, and citrus. Ingredients: - 1 1/2 oz Blanco tequila - 1/2 oz Mezcal - 1 oz Fresh lime juice - 3/4 oz Agave syrup - 1/4 teaspoon Activated charcoal powder - Pinch of salt - 1 Egg white (optional, for frothiness) - Edible silver or gold stars for garnish (optional) Glass: - Coupe glass Instructions: 1. Chill the coupe glass by placing it in the freezer or filling it with ice water and setting it aside. 2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the Blanco tequila, lime juice, agave syrup, salt, and egg white (if using). Do not add ice yet. 3. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 4. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well chilled. 5. In a separate shaker or glass, mix the mezcal with the activated charcoal powder until the charcoal is fully dissolved. 6. Empty the chilled coupe glass and strain the tequila-lime-agave mixture into it. 7. Carefully pour the charcoal-mezcal mixture over the back of a spoon to create a layer on top of the tequila base, producing the eclipse effect. 8. If using, sprinkle edible silver or gold stars atop the dark layer for an extra celestial touch. 9. Serve immediately and invite the drinker to stir the cocktail before sipping to blend the layers and unveil the full flavor profile. The Eclipse of the Agave is an innovative cocktail that combines the rustic appeal of tequila and mezcal with the trendiness of activated charcoal. The optional use of egg white adds a creamy texture, while the garnish of edible stars adds a playful touch to this otherworldly creation.
