Instructions

A refreshingly light and aromatic cocktail that captures the essence of the crisp air under the aurora borealis. This easy-drinking, not-too-strong cocktail has a sophisticated edge, with herbaceous and citrus notes, perfect for sipping as the evening sets in. Ingredients: - 1 1/2 oz Vodka (preferably a smooth, premium brand) - 1/2 oz Dry Vermouth - 1/2 oz Elderflower liqueur - 3 oz Tonic water - 2 oz Soda water - 2 Cucumber slices - 1 Sprig of fresh dill - 1 Lime wheel - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass, combine vodka, dry vermouth, and elderflower liqueur with ice. Stir gently to chill the ingredients without diluting the mixture too much. 2. Take a highball glass and fill it with ice cubes to maintain a cool temperature. 3. Strain the contents of the mixing glass into the highball glass over the ice. 4. Top the glass off with tonic water and soda water for a light effervescence. 5. Gently stir the drink to mix the layers. 6. Garnish with a couple of fresh cucumber slices, a sprig of dill, and a lime wheel delicately placed on the rim of the glass or floating on top. The Northern Lights Spritz offers a sublime balance of flavors without overpowering the palate with sweetness or alcohol. It's served in a highball glass to allow the carbonation from the tonic and soda water to lift the botanicals to your nose with each sip. Enjoy this innovative creation as a delightful pre-dinner apéritif or a laid-back weekend refresher.
