The Tears of Gaza is a cocktail that embodies the complexity of emotions and history, blending a mix of depths and nuances to provoke thought and conversation. It is a layered drink, combining sweetness, bitterness, and smokiness to reflect the multifaceted nature of its namesake. The drink is designed to have a visual appeal, with a gradation of colors mimicking a sunset, symbolizing hope amidst despair. It's served in a highball glass to allow for the full spectrum of colors and layers to be appreciated visually before stirring. **Glass**: Highball **Ingredients**: - 1.5 oz dark rum (to represent the richness of the land) - 0.5 oz Campari (to introduce a bitter note, symbolizing the bitterness of loss) - 0.5 oz grapefruit juice (for its sharpness and to add complexity) - 0.5 oz blood orange juice (for sweetness and depth, and its vibrant color) - 0.25 oz honey syrup (to signify the resilience and sweetness amidst adversity) - 2-3 drops liquid smoke (to incorporate the element of smoke and a hint of somberness) - Top with sparkling water (to add a layer of lightness and hope) - Garnish: Blood orange slice and a lemon twist **Instructions**: 1. In a shaker, combine the dark rum, Campari, grapefruit juice, blood orange juice, honey syrup, and liquid smoke with ice. Shake vigorously until well chilled. 2. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with ice cubes, allowing the liquid to settle before the next step. 3. Slowly top the glass with sparkling water, creating a gentle layer on top. 4. Carefully place a blood orange slice against the inside of the glass for visual appeal, then add a twist of lemon to garnish, signifying a glimmer of hope amidst darkness. **To Serve**: Encourage the drinker to stir the cocktail before sipping, blending the layers to fully experience the complexity of The Tears of Gaza. The stirring symbolizes the unity and strength derived from understanding and coming together in times of sorrow.
