As the clock strikes twelve and the New Year beckons, indulge in a symphony of flavors that marries the smoky essence of Scotch with the festive brightness of citrus and the warmth of winter spices. The Midnight Peat Symphony is a cocktail that echoes the old and ushers in the new, a perfect toast to beginnings and endings. Ingredients: - 2 oz Peated Scotch whisky (such as Laphroaig or Ardbeg for a robust smoky flavor) - 3/4 oz Freshly squeezed orange juice - 1/2 oz Lemon juice - 1/2 oz Honey-ginger syrup (equal parts honey, water, and a few slices of fresh ginger simmered and cooled) - 2 dashes Angostura bitters - 1/4 oz Grand Marnier or another orange liqueur - Sparkling wine or Champagne to top - Garnish: Orange twist and a maraschino cherry Glass: - Chilled coupe glass Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the Scotch, orange juice, lemon juice, honey-ginger syrup, orange liqueur, and Angostura bitters. 2. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well chilled. 3. Strain the mixture into the chilled coupe glass. 4. Gently top with a splash of sparkling wine or Champagne, creating a buoyant layer above the smoky base. 5. Express the oils of an orange twist over the drink and add it to the glass along with the maraschino cherry. Serve immediately as the effervescence marries the peaty notes with the zesty citrus and ginger, crafting a perfect moment of celebration to ring in the New Year. The Midnight Peat Symphony is an innovative and sophisticated choice for those who savor the depth of Scotch and the exuberance of a sparkling toast.
