Instructions

Description: The Midnight Shimmer is an enigmatic and sophisticated cocktail that boasts a deep black hue, with a glistening effect that resembles a starry night sky. Its mysterious color is matched by its complex flavor profile, blending the herbal notes of absinthe with the citrusy sharpness of lime, complemented by the botanicals of an excellent gin. With the addition of activated charcoal for its stunning effect and detoxifying properties, this drink is as intriguing to the palate as it is to the eye. A touch of simple syrup balances the drink, while an egg white provides a smooth, frothy texture, making each sip as luxurious as it is memorable. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin - 1/2 oz Absinthe - 3/4 oz Fresh lime juice - 1/2 oz Simple syrup - 1/4 tsp Activated charcoal powder (food-grade) - 1 Egg white - Edible glitter or silver dust (optional for garnish) - Ice Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, absinthe, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and activated charcoal powder. Ensure that the charcoal is thoroughly mixed to avoid any lumps. 2. Add the egg white to the mixture; this will help to create a silky foam and give the drink a luxurious mouthfeel. 3. Dry shake (shake without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 4. Add ice to the shaker and shake again vigorously until well-chilled. 5. Double strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe glass to prevent any small ice shards or charcoal particles from entering the drink. 6. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of edible glitter or silver dust over the frothy top of the cocktail to enhance the shimmery, midnight effect. 7. Serve immediately and watch as the Midnight Shimmer enchants your guests with its mystical appearance and captivating taste. Glass: Serve in a chilled coupe glass to showcase the cocktail's dark beauty and frothy top.
