Instructions

Description: The Mandrake Elixir is a mystical cocktail that marries the earthy and mythical essence of mandrake root with modern mixology. This drink utilizes fat-washing, where cocoa butter is infused into bourbon, adding a velvety, chocolatey depth. The mandrake root imparts a subtle, herbal complexity, while a hint of smoked vanilla provides an aromatic finish. Perfect for those seeking an otherworldly experience. Ingredients: - 2 oz cocoa butter-washed bourbon - 1/2 oz mandrake root syrup (ensure the mandrake root is properly processed and safe) - 1/4 oz honey - 2 dashes of smoked vanilla bitters - Orange twist for garnish Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing the cocoa butter-washed bourbon. Melt 1/4 cup of cocoa butter and combine it with 8 oz of bourbon. Let it infuse at room temperature for 4 hours, then freeze until the fat solidifies. Strain out the solids and keep the bourbon. 2. To prepare the mandrake root syrup, boil 1/2 cup of water with 1/2 cup of sugar and a small piece of mandrake root, ensuring it's safe for consumption. Simmer for 15 minutes and strain. 3. In a mixing glass, add the cocoa butter-washed bourbon, mandrake root syrup, honey, and smoked vanilla bitters. 4. Add ice and stir until well-chilled. 5. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. 6. Express an orange twist over the drink and drop it in as a garnish. Glass: Coupe Glass
