Instructions

Step into a world of elegance and intrigue with this gin-based cocktail inspired by the dazzling Zelda Fitzgerald. This cocktail captures the spirit of the Jazz Age with its sophisticated layering and inventive presentation, combining garden-fresh flavors with a touch of whimsy. Served in a classic coupe glass, this drink is both a visual and tasting delight. Ingredients: - 2 oz high-quality London dry gin - 1/2 oz elderflower liqueur - 1/2 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice - 1/4 oz cucumber-infused simple syrup - 2 dashes of lavender bitters - Edible flower ice sphere (lavender or pansy flowers frozen into the ice) - Fresh rosemary sprig for garnish - Optional: a spritz of absinthe mist Instructions: 1. Start by preparing the cucumber-infused simple syrup. Blend equal parts of water and sugar until the sugar dissolves, adding thin cucumber slices to infuse for at least 15 minutes. Strain before using. 2. Prepare an edible flower ice sphere by placing edible flowers in an ice mold, filling it with water, and freezing it until solid. 3. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add the gin, elderflower liqueur, lemon juice, cucumber-infused simple syrup, and lavender bitters. 4. Shake well to combine and chill the mixture. 5. Strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe glass, placing the prepared edible flower ice sphere at the bottom for both visual appeal and gradual flavor enhancement. 6. Optionally, lightly spritz the top of the cocktail with absinthe mist for an aromatic layer. 7. Garnish with a fresh rosemary sprig to add a fragrant touch reminiscent of a moonlit garden. This cocktail embodies the joie de vivre and elegance of Zelda's era, captivating the senses with every sip.
