Instructions

Inspired by the rich, bold flavors of Southern Italy, Velvet Calabria is a sophisticated cocktail that combines the herbal bitterness of Amaro del Capo with homemade infusions and syrups to create a drink that is as complex as it is refreshing. Served in a chilled coupe glass, this cocktail not only pays homage to Italian traditions but also brings an innovative twist to your glass. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Amaro del Capo - 0.5 oz homemade citrus-herb infusion (instructions below) - 0.75 oz homemade rosemary-honey syrup (instructions below) - 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice - 2 oz sparkling water - Garnish: Rosemary sprig and a lemon twist Homemade Citrus-Herb Infusion: - Zest of 1 lemon - Zest of 1 orange - 2 sprigs of fresh thyme - 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary - 200 ml of neutral grain spirit or vodka Combine all the ingredients in a jar, seal it tightly, and let it infuse for 3-5 days in a cool, dark place. Strain the infusion through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle. Store in a cool, dark place. Homemade Rosemary-Honey Syrup: - 1 cup water - 1 cup honey - 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary Combine water and honey in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until honey dissolves. Add rosemary sprigs; simmer for 1 minute, then remove from heat. Let it cool, then strain into a clean bottle. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Cocktail Preparation: 1. In a shaker filled with ice, combine Amaro del Capo, citrus-herb infusion, rosemary-honey syrup, and fresh lemon juice. 2. Shake well until chilled. 3. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. 4. Gently top with sparkling water. 5. Garnish with a rosemary sprig and a lemon twist. Velvet Calabria is a testament to the beauty of blending traditional flavors with modern mixology techniques. The homemade elements in this cocktail are not only a nod to Italian craftsmanship but also allow for a customized drinking experience that is both unique and memorable. Enjoy this innovative creation as an aperitif or a sophisticated after-dinner treat.
