Instructions

Step into a luxurious evening with Velvet Dusk, a cocktail crafted for those who savor the richness of tradition with a modern, indulgent twist. Ideal for an old-fashioned glass, this libation marries the bold warmth of whiskey with the deep notes of coffee liqueur, rounded off with a hint of fruity elegance. Ingredients: - 2 oz Aged Whiskey or Fine Brandy - 1/2 oz Premium Coffee Liqueur - 1/4 oz Blackberry Syrup (or substitute with Raspberry Syrup for a different fruit note) - 2 dashes Orange Bitters - 2 dashes Aromatic Bitters - Orange twist (for garnish) - Fresh blackberry (for garnish) Glass: - Old-Fashioned Glass Instructions: 1. In the old-fashioned glass, combine the aged whiskey or brandy with the coffee liqueur to lay down the robust foundation of this cocktail. 2. Add the blackberry syrup, providing a touch of fruitiness that complements the heavy notes without overpowering them. 3. Carefully pour in the orange bitters and aromatic bitters to enhance the complexity and depth of the drink. 4. Add a large ice cube to the glass, which will chill the beverage while slowly diluting it, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully over time. 5. Stir the mixture gently until the glass feels cold to the touch. 6. Express the orange twist over the glass to release its essential oils, then run the peel around the rim before dropping it into the drink. 7. Finally, add a fresh blackberry on top for an elegant garnish that invites a subtle burst of fruit with every sip. The Velvet Dusk cocktail is a symphony of rich flavors that offers a sophisticated twist on the classic old-fashioned, perfect for the connoisseur looking to explore bold new frontiers with every clink of ice.
