Instructions

Inspired by the rich, complex, and bittersweet flavor of Amaro Meletti, Velvet Dusk is a low-ABV cocktail designed to be sipped and savored as the evening unwinds. Highlighted by the warm herbal notes of the amaro, this drink is complemented by the subtle sweetness of elderflower and the brightness of fresh citrus, making it an elegant and approachable choice for any cocktail enthusiast. Ingredients: - 1 oz Amaro Meletti - 1 oz Elderflower liqueur - 1 oz Fresh pink grapefruit juice - 0.5 oz Fresh lemon juice - 2 oz Soda water - Grapefruit peel or rosemary sprig for garnish Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine Amaro Meletti, elderflower liqueur, pink grapefruit juice, and lemon juice with ice. 2. Shake well until the mixture is well chilled. 3. Strain into a chilled Collins glass filled with ice. 4. Top with soda water to add a refreshing effervescence. 5. Gently stir to integrate all ingredients. 6. Express the oils of the grapefruit peel over the drink and drop it in, or garnish with a sprig of rosemary, adding a touch of aromatic elegance. The Velvet Dusk offers a delightful balance of herbal, citrus, and floral notes with a sophisticated complexity that's sure to please the palate without the heaviness of a high-alcohol cocktail. Ideal for early evening sipping, it presents beautifully in the tall, slender profile of the Collins glass, which also helps to maintain the carbonation of the soda water.
