Description: The Midnight Scribe is an enigmatic and visually captivating cocktail that captures the essence of a mysterious night with its deep indigo hue. This drink combines the botanical complexity of gin with the unique addition of squid ink, offering an innovative and savory twist to a classic spirit. Brightened with a splash of citrus and smoothed with egg white, this cocktail presents a luxurious texture and an intriguing balance of flavors. It’s a perfect conversation starter for an upscale evening event or a novel addition to a themed cocktail party. Ingredients: - 2 oz Premium Gin - 1/4 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/4 oz Simple Syrup - A small pinch of Squid Ink (around 1/8 tsp or to taste) - 1 Egg White - 1 Strip of Orange Zest (for garnish) - Ice Glass: Serve in a chilled coupe glass. Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass or shaker, combine the gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, and squid ink. 2. Add the egg white to the mixture. This will create a silky foam when shaken. 3. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white and incorporate the squid ink fully. 4. Add ice to the shaker and shake again vigorously until the mixture is well chilled. 5. Strain the concoction into the chilled coupe glass using a fine-mesh strainer to achieve a smooth texture and to remove any ice shards. 6. Garnish with a thin strip of orange zest, expressing the oils over the drink by twisting it, to add a subtle aroma and a hint of citrus to the top notes. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the bewitching Midnight Scribe, a cocktail that's as alluring in taste as it is in appearance.
