Instructions

The Himalayan Whisper is a sublime cocktail that captures the essence of the Nepali spirit, Raksi, and elevates it through an advanced mixology technique known as fat-washing. This cocktail is a nod to the traditional flavors of Nepal, with a modern twist, making it an intriguing and sophisticated drink choice. Ingredients: - 2 oz Fat-washed Raksi* - 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 0.5 oz Ginger Syrup - 2 dashes Cardamom Bitters - Ice - Edible Gold Leaf and a Thin Slice of Ginger for Garnish Glass: - Chilled Coupe Glass Fat-Washed Raksi Preparation: To prepare the fat-washed Raksi, you'll need about 1/4 cup of unsalted butter and 8 oz of traditional Nepali Raksi. Melt the butter over low heat and combine it with the Raksi in a sealable glass container. Allow this mixture to infuse at room temperature for 4-6 hours, then freeze it until the butter solidifies on the surface. Remove the solid butter, and strain the Raksi through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to ensure it's perfectly clear again. Cocktail Preparation: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the fat-washed Raksi, fresh lime juice, ginger syrup, and cardamom bitters. 2. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. 3. Strain the mixture into the chilled coupe glass. 4. Garnish with a delicate piece of edible gold leaf placed atop the drink and a thin slice of ginger on the rim. The Himalayan Whisper offers a beautifully balanced taste with the warmth and richness of the fat-washed Raksi, the zesty brightness of lime, the spicy sweetness of ginger, and the exotic hint of cardamom. This cocktail is not only a feast for the palate but also for the eyes, perfect for special occasions or whenever you wish to impress with your mixology skills.
