Instructions

The Orchard Mirage is a sophisticated cocktail that employs the refined art of fat washing to bring out an unparalleled depth of flavor. This drink combines the apple-infused brandy character of Calvados with the silky mouthfeel of butter, creating an experience that's both familiar and utterly unique. Served in a chilled coupe glass, it's a drink that captivates with its complexity and elegance. **Ingredients:** - 2 oz Butter-washed Calvados - 0.5 oz Maple Syrup - 0.75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1 Egg White (optional for a frothier texture) - A dash of Angostura Bitters - Apple Slice and Cinnamon Stick for garnish **Butter-washed Calvados Preparation:** 1. Melt 1/4 cup of unsalted butter and combine it with 500ml of Calvados in a sealable container. 2. Let the mixture rest at room temperature for 4-6 hours, allowing the flavors to infuse. 3. Place the container in the freezer overnight. The butter will solidify on top of the Calvados. 4. Carefully remove the solid butter, leaving the infused Calvados behind. Strain the liquid through a cheesecloth to ensure clarity. **Cocktail Preparation:** 1. In a shaker, combine the butter-washed Calvados, maple syrup, and fresh lemon juice. If you're using an egg white, add it here for extra silkiness and froth. 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice cubes to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. 4. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. 5. Add a dash of Angostura bitters on top for an aromatic finish. 6. Garnish with a thin apple slice and a cinnamon stick. The Orchard Mirage is a testament to the creativity and innovation possible in the world of mixology, offering a remarkable balance of flavors that's both indulgent and refreshing. Perfect for autumn evenings or as a sophisticated after-dinner cocktail, it's sure to impress with its layered tastes and elegant presentation.
