Instructions

Drawing inspiration from the chic and sophisticated essence of Milan, this cocktail brings a smoky elegance to the table, perfectly blending Italian ingredients with a modern twist. **Glass:** Old Fashioned Glass **Ingredients:** - 2 oz Smoked Grappa - 1 oz Aperol - 1 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 0.5 oz Simple Syrup - A dash of Orange Bitters - Sparkling Water - Garnish: Charred Orange Peel and a Sprig of Rosemary **Instructions:** 1. Begin by infusing your grappa with a smoky flavor. This can be done by briefly exposing the grappa to a smoking gun filled with applewood chips, or by simply allowing the grappa to sit over a smoldering piece of natural wood. Allow the smoky aroma to infuse the grappa for a few minutes. 2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the smoked grappa, Aperol, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and a dash of orange bitters. Fill the shaker with ice. 3. Shake the ingredients vigorously for about 15 seconds, ensuring everything is well chilled and mixed. 4. Strain the mixture into an Old Fashioned glass filled with ice cubes. Top off the cocktail with a splash of sparkling water for a refreshing effervescence. 5. For the garnish, take an orange peel and gently char it with a kitchen torch or over a gas stove flame until it's lightly caramelized. This will enhance the smoky flavor of the drink. Place the charred orange peel into the drink and add a sprig of rosemary for an aromatic finish. The Milano Fumoso beautifully marries the smoky undertones of the grappa with the bitter-sweetness of Aperol and the freshness of lemon, creating a drink that's as memorable as a Milanese sunset. Perfect for evenings when the air hints at mystery and the company inspires sophisticated conversation.
