Instructions

Description: Ephemeral Zenith is a delicately layered cocktail, delivering a potent punch of alcohol with a surprisingly graceful ballet of flavors that tantalize and explode on the palate. Both the gin's botanicals and the sake's subtle rice notes are amplified through a careful balance with other ingredients, creating an almost transparent libation with a sophisticated appearance and a bold taste journey. Ingredients: - 2 oz Premium Gin (high ABV, such as Navy Strength) - 1 oz Junmai Daiginjo Sake (high-quality sake for a more refined taste) - 0.5 oz Clear Orange Liqueur (to add a citrusy sweetness without affecting color) - 0.5 oz Lime Juice (freshly squeezed for brightness) - 0.25 oz Simple Syrup (to tune the sweetness to your preference) - 1 dash of Orange Bitters (for a subtle depth of flavor) - 1 Egg White (for a silky texture and a luxurious mouthfeel) - Ice (for chilling) - Edible Flower or Clear Ice Sphere (for garnish) Glass: - Chilled Nick & Nora glass or a Coupe glass Instructions: 1. Begin by chilling your glass in the freezer to keep the drink cool. 2. In a cocktail shaker without ice, add the gin, sake, orange liqueur, lime juice, simple syrup, and egg white. This is called a "dry shake" and it helps to emulsify the egg white. 3. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to froth up the egg white. 4. Add a handful of ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled, another 15 seconds or so. 5. Strain the mixture into the chilled glass. The cocktail should be almost transparent with a slight opalescent sheen from the emulsified egg white. 6. Add a single dash of orange bitters on top. 7. For garnish, float a delicate edible flower on the surface or place a clear ice sphere in the glass before pouring the drink to enhance the visual appeal. 8. Serve immediately and enjoy the explosion of flavors with each sip. The Ephemeral Zenith is a high-octane, flavor-packed cocktail that combines the botanical complexity of gin with the refined taste of sake, all in a deceptively clear and elegant presentation.
