Instructions

Dive into the past with a cocktail that embodies the strength and boldness of a medieval knight. The Knight's Elixir is a dark, complex, and aromatic drink with a hint of sweetness to balance its robust flavors. Served in a pewter goblet to capture the medieval essence, this drink is sure to transport you back in time. Ingredients: - 2 oz aged brandy, representing the richness of the medieval era - 1/2 oz Benedictine, reflecting the monastic contributions to medieval culture - 1/4 oz mead, to add a touch of sweetness and honor the knights’ drink of choice - 2 dashes of angostura bitters for complexity and depth - A small pinch of edible gold flakes for garnish, symbolizing the wealth and power of the knight Instructions: 1. In a pewter goblet (to keep it authentic, though a metal or old-fashioned glass can substitute), fill the goblet with ice to chill, then discard the ice. 2. In a mixing glass filled with ice, combine the aged brandy, Benedictine, and mead. 3. Add the angostura bitters. 4. Stir well until the outside of the mixing glass feels cold. 5. Strain the mixture into the chilled pewter goblet. 6. Garnish with a pinch of edible gold flakes on top to add a touch of nobility. 7. Optionally, you can burn a sprig of rosemary briefly and cover the goblet to capture the smoke, adding a layer of aroma reminiscent of a medieval banquet hall before serving. The Knight's Elixir is a perfect blend of history, luxury, and bold flavors, ideal for those moments when you wish to feel like nobility from ages past.
