Instructions

Immerse your senses in the refreshing embrace of the Sunset Clove Citrus Sour, a cocktail that radiates the warmth of the setting sun and the invigorating zest of citrus. This innovatively crafted drink marries the tangy essence of oranges with the subtle spice of cloves, delivering a unique sour experience that dances on the palate. Perfect for evenings when the sky paints itself in hues of orange and pink, this cocktail promises a burst of freshness with every sip. **Ingredients:** - 2 oz Whiskey (preferably a smooth, aged variety for depth) - 1 oz Fresh orange juice (squeezed from ripe oranges) - 1/2 oz Fresh lemon juice - 1/2 oz Simple syrup (to balance the sourness) - 1/4 oz Clove syrup (homemade by simmering cloves with sugar and water) - Egg white from 1 egg (for a frothy, silky texture) - Ice cubes - Garnish: Orange wheel studded with whole cloves **Glass:** - Serve in a chilled coupe glass to enhance the elegance of the cocktail. **Instructions:** 1. **Prepare the Clove Syrup:** In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/2 cup of water, and a tablespoon of whole cloves. Bring to a simmer, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Strain out the cloves. 2. **Cocktail Preparation:** In a cocktail shaker, combine the whiskey, fresh orange juice, lemon juice, simple syrup, and clove syrup. 3. **Add the Egg White:** Crack an egg and separate the white, adding it into the shaker. 4. **Dry Shake:** Before adding ice, shake the mixture vigorously for about 15 seconds. This process helps to emulsify the egg white, creating a smooth and frothy texture. 5. **Ice Shake:** Add a handful of ice cubes to the shaker. Shake again vigorously until the outside of the shaker feels cold, usually around 10 seconds. 6. **Strain and Serve:** Strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe glass, ensuring a smooth pour. 7. **Garnish:** Take an orange wheel and carefully stud the outer edge with whole cloves. Float this aromatic garnish atop the cocktail for both visual appeal and a burst of clove scent with each sip. The Sunset Clove Citrus Sour is a symphony of flavors and textures, blending the smoothness of whiskey with the brightness of citrus and the aromatic warmth of cloves. This cocktail is not just a drink; it's an experience, evoking the serene beauty of a sunset wrapped in the comforting embrace of your favorite cocktail glass. Cheers to evenings that inspire and drinks that transform moments into memories.
