Instructions

Description: Ethereal Bloom is a delicately crafted cocktail that embraces the essence of a garden in full bloom. Its composition is carefully balanced to ensure that the floral notes are not just present but are the soul of the drink. This adjustment focuses on enhancing the subtle flowery aromas you're seeking, making the elderflower and orange blossom water more perceivable and creating a harmonious blend where the gin and cucumber act as a canvas for the floral artwork. Ingredients: - 50g Gin (a floral gin remains ideal, but slightly reduced in quantity for balance) - 35g Fresh cucumber juice (to maintain freshness but not overpower the floral notes) - 10g Fresh lime juice (to add a touch of brightness without overpowering) - 20g Elderflower syrup (increased to highlight its floral sweetness) - 3g Orange blossom water (slightly increased to ensure its presence is noted, but cautiously to avoid overpowering) - 7g Fresh basil leaves (finely chopped to infuse more effectively into the drink) - Ice cubes (as needed) - For garnish: A thin cucumber ribbon and a small sprig of basil, or an edible flower if available for an added touch of elegance Glass: Chilled Martini Glass Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the finely chopped basil leaves gently to release their flavors without turning the mixture green. 2. Add the gin, cucumber juice, lime juice, elderflower syrup, and orange blossom water to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake vigorously until well chilled. 4. Double strain the mixture into the chilled martini glass to ensure a smooth texture, leaving any basil remnants behind. 5. Garnish with a cucumber ribbon gracefully twirled inside the glass or on the rim and a small sprig of basil or an edible flower atop the drink for visual and aromatic allure. The Ethereal Bloom aims to transport you to a serene garden, where each sip brings a blossoming of flavors to your palate, with the floral notes dancing delicately on your taste buds. Enjoy the nuanced balance and the enhanced floral essence that defines this cocktail.
