Instructions

The Eclipse Shadow is a visually striking cocktail that symbolizes the celestial phenomenon of an eclipse. It features a gradient of dark to light, representing the moon's shadow passing over the sun. The absence of gin and coconut allows for a rich blend of flavors, with a base of rum to anchor the drink in a warm, earthy territory. Served in a chilled coupe glass, this sophisticated cocktail is perfect for evening events and celestial celebrations. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Dark Rum - 0.5 oz Creme de Cassis - 1 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 0.5 oz Simple Syrup - 1 Egg White (for foam) - Activated Charcoal Powder (a pinch for color and detoxifying properties) - Club Soda (a splash for a slight fizz) - Edible Gold Dust or Gold Leaf for garnish (to represent the sun) Instructions: 1. In a shaker, combine the dark rum, creme de cassis, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white. Add a tiny pinch (less than 1/8 teaspoon) of activated charcoal powder. This will not only add detoxifying properties but will give the cocktail its dark, mysterious color. 2. Dry shake (no ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again vigorously for another 10-15 seconds, chilling the mixture. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to ensure a smooth texture without any ice chips or egg residue. 5. Carefully add a splash of club soda to create a slight fizz at the top. 6. Garnish with a sprinkle of edible gold dust or place a small piece of gold leaf on the foam to depict the sun peeking out from behind the moon. The Eclipse Shadow cocktail is a celebration of contrasts—dark and light, earthy and bright—creating a memorable drinking experience that's as enjoyable to look at as it is to sip.
