Instructions

Description: The Smoked Plum Elixir is a sophisticated cocktail that combines the rich and nuanced flavors of smoked plums with smooth bourbon and subtle hints of citrus and herbal notes. The smokiness of the plums is achieved through a unique process of gently smoldering ripe plums over a wooden plank, infusing the fruit with a deep and captivating aroma. Mixed with a touch of honey for natural sweetness, a dash of lemon juice for acidity, and a whisper of thyme for an earthy complexity, this cocktail is a perfect balance of savory and sweet. Finished with a splash of ginger beer for effervescence, the Smoked Plum Elixir is an innovative fusion of flavors that's sure to intrigue and delight the most discerning palates. Ingredients: - 2 oz Bourbon - 1/2 Smoked Plum Puree - 1/2 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/2 oz Honey Syrup (equal parts honey and water) - 2 Dashes of Orange Bitters - 1 Sprig of Fresh Thyme - Ginger Beer (to top off) - Ice - Smoked Plum Slice and Thyme Sprig (for garnish) Instructions: 1. To prepare the smoked plum puree, halve ripe plums and remove pits. Place the plums on a wooden plank suitable for smoking and use a kitchen torch to lightly char the surface of the plums. Allow the smoke to infuse for a few minutes, then puree the smoked plums until smooth. 2. In a shaker, combine the bourbon, smoked plum puree, fresh lemon juice, honey syrup, and orange bitters with ice. 3. Shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker feels cold. 4. Double strain into a chilled rocks glass filled with fresh ice to remove any plum pulp. 5. Top off the cocktail with a splash of ginger beer. 6. Slap the thyme sprig between your hands to release its aroma and garnish the drink along with a thin slice of smoked plum. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the layered complexity of the Smoked Plum Elixir. Glass: Rocks Glass
