Instructions

The Twilight Citrus Elixir is a stunning cocktail, perfect for evenings when the sky mirrors the mesmerizing hues of citrus fruits. This drink features a beautiful layer of coffee foam, created using a siphon, which sits atop a harmonious blend of sweet, sour, and herbal flavors. Each sip promises a journey through a garden of citrus groves at twilight, with the warmth of a coffee blanket. Ingredients: - 50 ml quality gin (a botanical variety works wonders here) - 20 ml honey syrup (preferably made with orange blossom honey) - 10 ml fresh Sicilian lemon juice - 10 ml fresh orange juice (blood orange, if in season, for a richer color and taste) - A small handful of fresh basil leaves - 50 ml cold brew coffee (for the foam) - Ice cubes For the honey syrup: - Combine equal parts water and orange blossom honey in a saucepan. - Gently heat, stirring until the honey is completely dissolved. - Allow to cool before use. For the coffee foam: - Pour 50 ml of cold brew coffee into the siphon. - Charge the siphon with one cartridge of N2O. - Shake vigorously and keep chilled until ready to use. Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the basil leaves gently with the honey syrup to release their essential oils. 2. Add the gin, fresh Sicilian lemon juice, and fresh orange juice to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake vigorously until well chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. 5. Carefully dispense the coffee foam from the siphon, creating a generous layer on top of the drink. 6. Garnish with a twist of orange peel or a delicate basil leaf. Glass: - Serve in a chilled coupe glass to showcase the layers of this sophisticated cocktail. The Twilight Citrus Elixir combines the aromatic complexity of botanical gin with the honeyed sweetness and citrus brightness, all crowned with a velvety coffee foam. Each element plays a crucial role, offering a cocktail experience that lingers on the palate and memory.
