Instructions

The Himalayan Spring Spice is a symphony of flavors that balances the warmth of traditional Nepali raksi with the brightness of fresh ingredients and a spicy kick, ideal for the blooming season. Served in a sturdy, lowball glass with a single square ice cube to subtly dilute the flavors as you sip, this cocktail is an ode to the springtime vigor and the age-old traditions of Nepal. Ingredients: - 2 oz Traditional Nepali Raksi - 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 0.5 oz Honey Syrup (equal parts honey and water, heated until fully combined, then cooled) - 2-3 Slices Fresh Ginger - 2 Dashes of Orange Bitters - 1 Small Slice of Jalapeño (for garnish) - 1 Square Ice Cube - A Sprig of Fresh Mint (for garnish) Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the fresh ginger slices gently to release their flavor. 2. Add the traditional Nepali raksi, fresh lime juice, and honey syrup to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds, until well-chilled. 4. Place one large square ice cube in a lowball glass. 5. Strain the cocktail mixture over the ice cube in the glass. 6. Add two dashes of orange bitters directly into the glass. 7. Garnish with a small slice of jalapeño (on the rim or floating atop) and a sprig of fresh mint. The Himalayan Spring Spice cocktail is a perfect balance between the potent warmth of raksi and the refreshing zest of lime, subtly sweetened with honey syrup, with a memorable spicy kick from the ginger and jalapeño. This drink not only captures the essence of spring but also pays homage to the rich cultural heritage of Nepal. Enjoy this vibrant concoction as a fireside companion on cooler evenings or as a refreshing libation on warm spring afternoons.
