Instructions

Embark on an adventurous journey with the Survivor's Spirit, a cocktail inspired by the indomitable spirit and rugged terrains explored by Bear Grylls. This drink captures the essence of survival, blending the warmth of Drambuie with the smooth essence of Balvenie 12, while introducing elements that evoke the wild. Perfect for those who appreciate a tale of adventure with their sips. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Balvenie 12 Year Old - 0.75 oz Drambuie - 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice - 0.5 oz honey-ginger syrup (equal parts honey, water, and sliced ginger, simmered and cooled) - 2 dashes of bitters (Angostura or a smoky variant for an extra kick) - A sprig of rosemary and a small piece of honeycomb for garnish - Smoked sea salt for the rim Glassware: - Old-fashioned glass Preparation: 1. Begin by preparing the honey-ginger syrup. Allow it to cool before use. 2. Rim the old-fashioned glass with smoked sea salt. This can be done by wetting the rim with a lemon wedge and then dipping it into the salt. 3. In a shaker, combine the Balvenie 12, Drambuie, fresh lemon juice, and honey-ginger syrup. Add a generous amount of ice and shake until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mix into the prepared old-fashioned glass filled with large ice cubes. 5. Add the two dashes of bitters directly into the glass, allowing it to subtly blend with the other ingredients. 6. For the garnish, lightly char the rosemary sprig with a torch or over an open flame for a few seconds to unleash its aroma. Place it in the glass along with a piece of honeycomb on the side. Presentation: Serve the Survivor's Spirit immediately, accompanied by a small backstory card detailing the inspiration behind the cocktail. Suggest taking a moment to inhale the charred rosemary's aroma before the first sip, inviting the drinker to imagine themselves by a fire, under the stars, in the wilderness. This not only tastes like an adventure but also feels like one, making every sip a step deeper into the wild.
