Instructions

The Twilight Mystic is a cocktail that invites adventure into the dusky hours, with an enigmatic blend of smoky sophistication and a garden's worth of herbal undertones. This libation is a complex narrative in a glass, perfect for contemplative evenings or the beginning of a night filled with mystery. Glass: - Old Fashioned Glass Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal (for the foundational smoky flavor) - 1 oz Green Chartreuse (for herbal complexity) - 0.5 oz Fresh Lime Juice (to add a touch of crisp acidity) - 0.25 oz Agave Syrup (for a subtle sweet balance) - 2 Dashes of Orange Bitters (for a citrusy depth) - A Sprig of Fresh Thyme (as an aromatic garnish) - A Pinch of Smoked Sea Salt (for the rim) - Ice cubes (preferably one large cube for slow dilution) Instructions: 1. Start by chilling the Old Fashioned Glass. 2. In a shaker, combine the mezcal, green Chartreuse, fresh lime juice, agave syrup, and orange bitters. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Take the pre-chilled glass and rub a lime wedge along the rim before lightly dipping it into the smoked sea salt to coat the edge. 5. Place a large ice cube in the center of the glass. 6. Double-strain the mixture from the shaker over the large ice cube in the glass to ensure a smooth pour without any small ice shards or herb bits. 7. Gently slap the sprig of fresh thyme between your hands to release the oils and aromatics, then place it as a garnish on the drink. 8. Lastly, carefully hold a wooden match or lighter to the sprig of thyme until it smokes slightly, to enhance the smoky aroma as the drink is served. Serve the Twilight Mystic immediately to enjoy the symphony of smoky and herbal notes that evolves with every sip.
