Instructions

The Smoky Phantom's Elixir embodies the mysterious and bold characteristics of a classic evening cocktail with an innovative twist. It offers an intriguing balance of warmth from bourbon, the complexity of amaro, a hint of absinthe's herbal notes, and a captivating smokiness that lingers like a specter. Ingredients: - 2 oz Bourbon - 0.5 oz Amaro (preferably a darker variety, such as Amaro Averna) - 1 tsp Absinthe - 1 pinch of oak wood smoking chips - 1 orange peel (for garnish) - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing your glass. Use a snifter or a double old-fashioned glass to enhance the drinking experience. 2. Place the oak wood smoking chips in a smoking gun and light them, capturing the smoke in a glass cloche or a clean glass jar. 3. While the smoke develops, combine the bourbon and amaro in a mixing glass filled with ice. Stir the mixture until it is well chilled, about 30 seconds. 4. Remove the glass from the smoke capture and strain the chilled bourbon and amaro into the glass. 5. Rinse the glass with the absinthe by pouring in the teaspoon and swirling it around to coat the inside of the glass, discarding any excess. 6. Carefully uncover the glass containing the captured smoke, and immediately pour the chilled bourbon and amaro mixture into the smoke-rinsed glass, allowing the smoke to infuse the cocktail briefly. 7. Express the oil of the orange peel over the glass and then drop it into the cocktail for garnish. 8. Serve immediately, inviting the guest to take a moment to enjoy the aromatic smokiness before sipping the elixir. This drink is a theatrical experience that remains approachable while exuding depth and complexity. It is perfect for a quiet evening or as a conversation starter at an intimate gathering.
