Instructions

Imagine a cocktail that captures the ambience of a perfect sunset, with layers that mimic the hues of the evening sky. The Sundown Serenity is a visually stunning and taste bud tantalizing drink that combines the botanicals of gin with the bittersweet charm of Aperol, served over crushed ice to provide a refreshing and cooling experience. **Ingredients:** - 1.5 oz Gin (preferably a floral gin for this recipe) - 1 oz Aperol - 0.5 oz Elderflower Liqueur - 0.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 2 oz Grapefruit Soda - 1 dash Orange Bitters - Grapefruit peel, for garnish - Sprig of fresh rosemary, for garnish **Instructions:** 1. In a mixing glass, combine the gin, Aperol, elderflower liqueur, and fresh lemon juice. 2. Add a scoop of crushed ice to the glass and shake briefly just to chill and dilute the mixture slightly. 3. Strain over a goblet or large wine glass filled to the brim with crushed ice. 4. Top gently with the grapefruit soda to maintain layered effect. 5. Add a dash of orange bitters. 6. Express the oils of a grapefruit peel over the drink and place it on top as a garnish. 7. Gently rest a sprig of fresh rosemary alongside the peel for an aromatic effect. With every sip, the Sundown Serenity offers a delightful progression of flavors, from the initial crisp and floral notes to the lingering bittersweet kiss of Aperol, all while the scent of rosemary and grapefruit sets a tranquil mood. This cocktail is not just a drink, it's an experience – best enjoyed during the magical moments as the day gives way to the night.
