Instructions

Description: The Velvet Blaze is an exquisite concoction that provides a multi-sensorial experience, combining smoky flavors with velvety textures and a visually stunning presentation. This cocktail employs an advanced mixology technique known as fat washing, alongside a spectacular flambé finish, to bring out a rich, complex character. Perfect for those evenings when you crave something truly out of the ordinary, the Velvet Blaze is a testament to the art of cocktail making. Ingredients: - 2 oz Fat-washed whiskey (preferably with bacon fat for its rich, smoky flavor) - 1/2 oz Maple syrup - 1/2 oz Fresh lemon juice - 1 Egg white - A pinch of smoked sea salt - 2 dashes of walnut bitters - Orange peel, for garnish - Bacon slice, for garnish Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing your fat-washed whiskey. Combine 8 oz of your chosen whiskey with 1 oz of melted bacon fat in a sealable container. Shake well and let it sit at room temperature for 4 hours, then freeze it until the fat solidifies on top. Remove the solid fat and strain the whiskey through a cheesecloth to ensure it's perfectly clear. 2. In a shaker, combine the fat-washed whiskey, maple syrup, fresh lemon juice, egg white, and a pinch of smoked sea salt. 3. Dry shake (shake without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 4. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. 5. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to achieve a smooth, velvety texture. 6. Carefully float two dashes of walnut bitters on top. 7. For the garnish, use a culinary torch to lightly char the orange peel and a small slice of bacon. This will release their aromas and add a subtle smokiness to the cocktail. Place them on the rim of the glass. 8. Finally, for the pièce de résistance, lightly spritz the top of the cocktail with a high-proof alcohol and briefly set it aflame with the torch for a dramatic flambé effect. Blow out the flame before drinking. Glass: Serve in a chilled coupe glass for an elegant presentation. The Velvet Blaze is not just a drink; it's an adventure that transcends the ordinary cocktail experience, treating the senses to an array of flavors, aromas, and textures that will leave a lasting impression.
