Instructions

Imagine the soft hues of a Mediterranean sunset captured in a glass; this is the essence of Mediterranean Serenity. An invigorating, refreshing long drink that balances the sophisticated bite of white rum with the vibrant citrus notes of Schweppes Pink Mixer, elevated with a hint of herbal complexity and a saline whisper to transport you to the coast with every sip. Served in a Highball glass to enhance its visual appeal and aromatic journey, this cocktail is a testament to simplicity and balance, adhering to the Schweppes Mixology competition's guidelines for innovation and authenticity. Ingredients: - 50ml White Rum - 20ml Lavender and Honey Syrup (homemade or store-bought; ensure it's tasty and not overly sweet) - 2 dashes of Orange Bitters - 2 drops of Saline Solution (10% salt water solution) - Schweppes Pink Mixer to top up - Edible Garnish: A sprig of fresh lavender or a thin slice of pink grapefruit Instructions: 1. In a Highball glass, combine the white rum, lavender and honey syrup, orange bitters, and saline solution. 2. Fill the glass with ice, ideally one large cube or sphere to slow down dilution, ensuring the drink remains refreshing for longer. 3. Gently pour the Schweppes Pink Mixer over the back of a spoon to top up the drink. This not only mixes the drink slightly but helps maintain its carbonation and creates a pleasing layered effect. 4. Stir the drink gently to combine the flavors while maintaining the effervescence. 5. Garnish with a sprig of fresh lavender or, for a citrusy pop, a thin slice of pink grapefruit resting on the rim of the glass or floated on top. The Mediterranean Serenity combines the herbal notes of lavender, the sweetness of honey, the crispness of white rum, and the refreshing tang of Schweppes Pink Mixer, offering a unique drinking experience. The saline solution subtly enhances the flavors, bridging the sweet and bitter components for a harmonious profile. This drink not only showcases creativity and the careful consideration of ingredient synergy but also adheres to the refreshing and innovative spirit of the Schweppes Mixology competition. Enjoy the journey to the Mediterranean coast with every sip.
