Instructions

Inspired by the harmony of a Zen garden and the vibrant hues of nature, the Purple Zen Garden is a bold, spicy, yet refreshingly balanced cocktail. Crafted for those who appreciate a touch of heat and the luxurious depth of cognac, this drink is as intriguing in flavor as it is beautiful in presentation. Best served in a highball glass to allow its layers to shine, topped with a delicate purple edible flower and lime zest resting atop the ice, creating a stunning contrast and an aroma that invites you in. Ingredients: - 2 oz Cognac - 1/2 oz Lime juice, freshly squeezed - 1/4 oz Thyme syrup (homemade* or store-bought) - 2 slices of Jalapeño (seeds removed for less heat) - 3 oz Tonic water - Ice cubes - Garnish: Purple edible flower and lime zest Instructions: 1. To make the thyme syrup, combine equal parts of sugar and water in a small saucepan, add a handful of fresh thyme leaves, bring to a simmer until the sugar dissolves. Let it cool before straining out the thyme leaves. 2. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the jalapeño slices gently with the lime juice and thyme syrup to release their flavors without making the drink too spicy. 3. Add the cognac and a handful of ice cubes to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds, or until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with ice cubes, being careful to leave the muddled jalapeño pieces behind. 5. Top off with tonic water for a refreshing fizz. 6. Garnish with a delicate purple edible flower and zest a lime directly over the glass to allow the citrus oils and fragrance to enhance the drink's aroma. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the complex, satisfying layers of the Purple Zen Garden. The Purple Zen Garden cocktail perfectly balances the spicy kick of jalapeño, the herbal notes of thyme, the richness of cognac, and the refreshment of tonic water, creating a unique drinking experience that's sure to impress.
