Description: The Strawberry Eclipse is a visually stunning cocktail that embodies the perfect fusion of sweet, sour, and aromatic flavors. This innovative concoction presents a layered look, reminiscent of a celestial eclipse, where a rich, strawberry-red bottom slowly transitions into a golden, bubbly top. It's a refreshing, effervescent drink with a sophisticated profile, sure to captivate both the eyes and the palate. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Gin (preferably a botanical variety) - 0.5 oz Elderflower liqueur - 1 oz Fresh strawberry puree (strained to remove seeds) - 0.5 oz Fresh lemon juice - 0.5 oz Simple syrup (adjust to taste) - 2 oz Champagne or Prosecco - Fresh basil leaves - Sliced strawberry and a sprig of basil for garnish Instructions: 1. In a shaker, muddle a few fresh basil leaves gently to release their aroma. 2. Add the gin, elderflower liqueur, strawberry puree, lemon juice, and simple syrup to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass, ensuring to filter out the basil leaves. 5. Carefully top with the Champagne or Prosecco to create a two-tone effect, pouring slowly over the back of a spoon if necessary. 6. Garnish with a sliced strawberry on the rim and a sprig of basil floated atop the drink. Glass: Serve in a chilled coupe glass to showcase the striking layers and maintain the effervescence of the sparkling wine. The wide bowl of the glass also allows the aroma of basil and strawberry to reach the nose, enhancing the drinking experience.
