Instructions

Dive into the warm embrace of an Eternal Sunset, a drink that encapsulates the essence of a sun-drenched evening by the sea. This cocktail stands out due to its use of an advanced mixology technique – fat washing – to infuse the aged rum with a subtle, silky coconut flavor, marrying the tropical and the sophisticated. **Type of Glass**: Coupette **Ingredients**: - 2 oz Coconut oil-washed aged rum (recipe below) - 1 oz Blood orange syrup - 0.75 oz Fresh lime juice - A splash of ginger beer - 2 dashes of Angostura bitters - Garnish: Blood orange wheel and a sprig of mint **For the Coconut Oil-Washed Aged Rum**: - 1 cup Aged rum (preferably one with a pronounced, complex flavor) - 1/4 cup Virgin coconut oil **Instructions**: 1. **Prepare the Coconut Oil-Washed Aged Rum**: a. Melt the coconut oil and combine it with the aged rum in a sealable jar. b. Let the mixture rest at room temperature for about 4 hours, then freeze it until the coconut oil solidifies (about 2 hours). c. Remove the solidified coconut oil from the top and filter the rum through a coffee filter to remove any remaining oil particles. Store the infused rum in a clean bottle. 2. **Eternal Sunset Cocktail**: a. In a shaker, combine the coconut oil-washed aged rum, blood orange syrup, and fresh lime juice. Shake vigorously. b. Strain the mixture into a coupette glass. c. Add a splash of ginger beer and two dashes of Angostura bitters. d. Garnish with a thin wheel of blood orange and a sprig of mint. The Eternal Sunset is a cocktail that plays on the strengths of aged rum, enhancing it with the exotic flavor of coconut through fat washing. The addition of blood orange syrup and lime juice brings a fruity acidity, balanced by the spicy fizz of ginger beer and the herbal warmth of Angostura bitters. Serve this drink as the highlight of an elegant evening or a sophisticated gathering, letting its unique creation story spark conversation.
