Instructions

Delve into the essence of summer with this innovative, crystal-clear cocktail that elegantly balances the delicate flavors of elderflower and crisp, refreshing elements for a drink that tastes like a serene, sunny day. The use of a special technique with agar-agar makes the cocktail clear, while elderflower brings a floral note that's perfectly complemented by the understated strength of gin and the brightness of lemon. It's a visually stunning, aromatic, and tasteful homage to the warmth and joy of summer days, served in a way that surprises and delights. Ingredients: - 60ml Gin (preferably a floral one) - 30ml Elderflower liqueur - 15ml Clear lemon syrup (see instructions below) - 10ml Agar-agar clarification mixture (for making the cocktail clear, instructions below) - Soda water - Ice cubes - Fresh elderflowers for garnish (ensure they're non-toxic and pesticide-free) Glass: - Highball glass Instructions: 1. **Preparation of Clear Lemon Syrup:** - Combine 100ml of water with 200g of sugar and the zest of 1 lemon in a saucepan. Heat until sugar is dissolved, without boiling. Add the juice of the lemon, then strain through a fine sieve. - To clarify, mix 2g of agar-agar with the warm lemon syrup, stir well, and let it set into a gel-like consistency. Once set, whisk to break it up and strain through a cheesecloth or a coffee filter. The result is a clear lemon syrup. 2. **Agar-agar Clarification for Cocktail:** - Make a simple syrup by dissolving 100g of sugar in 100ml of water. Cool it down and mix with 2g of agar-agar. This mixture will be used to clarify your cocktail, making it transparent. 3. **Assembling the Cocktail:** - In a shaker, combine the gin, elderflower liqueur, clear lemon syrup, and a small scoop (around one teaspoon) of the agar-agar mix. Shake well with ice. - Strain the mixture into your highball glass filled with ice cubes to remove any remaining particles, ensuring the drink remains clear. - Top off with soda water and gently stir to combine. - Garnish with a sprig of fresh elderflowers, floating gracefully on top. Serving this cocktail is not just about offering a drink; it's about providing an experience. The Estivo Trasparente con Fiori di Sambuco captivates with its clear appearance, surprises with its depth of flavor, and delights with its floral elderflower notes, making each sip a taste of summer's elegant beauty.
