Description: The Enchanted Nebula cocktail is a visually stunning concoction that brings the experience of gazing into the cosmos right to your glass. This cocktail uses the spherification technique, a modernist cooking method, to create mesmerizing "planets" that burst with flavor, releasing hidden layers and depths when sipped. Each sip takes you on a journey through a galaxy of tastes, making it perfect for a special night. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin - 1 oz Elderflower Liqueur - 0.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 0.5 oz Lavender Simple Syrup - 4 oz Tonic Water - 1 g Sodium Alginate - 5 g Calcium Lactate - Edible glitter (optional) - Fresh Lavender sprig for garnish Instructions: 1. Prepare the "planet" spheres: - Dissolve the sodium alginate in 1 cup of water using a hand blender, then let it sit to remove air bubbles. - Blend calcium lactate with the Elderflower Liqueur. - Use a pipette to drop the Elderflower mixture into the sodium alginate bath, creating small spheres. - Let them soak for 1-2 minutes, then remove and rinse in clean water. Set aside. 2. Create the base cocktail: - In a shaker, combine the gin, fresh lemon juice, and lavender simple syrup with ice. - Shake vigorously and strain into a highball glass filled with ice. 3. Add the cosmic touch: - Gently pour tonic water into the glass. - Carefully place the "planet" spheres into the glass. - Optionally, add a pinch of edible glitter to give a starry effect. 4. Garnish with a fresh lavender sprig and serve. Glass: Highball Glass This cocktail is not only a sensory delight but also a conversation starter, perfect for impressing guests with a combination of classic flavors and modern mixology.
