Instructions

Imagine a cocktail that captures the essence of a vivid sunset, blending heat and sweetness with a touch of smoky sophistication. The Solar Flare Sour is a visually stunning drink that employs the advanced mixology technique of fat washing to infuse the whiskey with a rich, bacon-like flavor, complemented by the fiery heat of homemade jalapeño syrup. This drink is served in a chilled coupe glass, showcasing its beautiful gradient of colors, from deep orange to a soft, fiery red, mirroring a truly spectacular sunset. Ingredients: - 2 oz Bacon Fat-Washed Bourbon (Instructions below) - 0.75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 0.75 oz Jalapeño Simple Syrup (Instructions below) - 0.5 oz Egg White - 2 dashes Angostura Bitters - Ice - Garnish: A thin slice of jalapeño or a small crispy piece of bacon Glass: - Coupe Instructions for Bacon Fat-Washed Bourbon: 1. Cook 3-4 strips of bacon and reserve about 1 oz of the rendered fat. 2. Pour 1 bottle of bourbon into a large, sealable container. While still warm, add the bacon fat into the bourbon. 3. Let the mixture sit at room temperature for about 4-6 hours, then freeze it overnight. The fat will solidify on top. 4. Remove the solidified fat, and strain the bourbon through a cheesecloth or coffee filter to ensure clarity and smoothness. Instructions for Jalapeño Simple Syrup: 1. Combine 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water, and 1 sliced jalapeño (seeds included for extra heat) in a saucepan. 2. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. 3. Remove from heat and let it steep for 30 minutes before straining the jalapeños out. Cool before use. Cocktail Assembly: 1. In a shaker, combine the bacon fat-washed bourbon, lemon juice, jalapeño simple syrup, and egg white. 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice and shake again until well chilled. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass. 5. Add two dashes of Angostura bitters on the foam. 6. Garnish with a thin slice of jalapeño or a small piece of crispy bacon. The Solar Flare Sour is an exquisite blend of savory, spicy, and sour, delivering a multi-layered tasting experience that is as unforgettable as its presentation.
