Description: The Velvet Eclipse is a bold and captivating cocktail that offers a rich tapestry of flavors, striking the perfect balance between potency and a touch of indulgence. This drink is strong, thanks to a robust base spirit, yet its sweetness is refined and sophisticated, making it an ideal choice for those seeking complexity without overt sugary notes. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Aged Rum (preferably dark, for richness and depth) - 0.5 oz Amaro (Italian herbal liqueur, for a bittersweet complexity) - 0.5 oz Benedictine (for a hint of herbs and honey sweetness) - 0.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice (to add brightness and acidity) - 0.25 oz Simple Syrup (to balance the drink with a subtle sweetness) - 2 dashes of Walnut Bitters (to introduce a nutty and earthy undertone) - A small pinch of Sea Salt (to enhance all the flavors) - Lemon twist and a brandied cherry for garnish Instructions: 1. In a mixing glass, combine the aged rum, Amaro, Benedictine, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, walnut bitters, and sea salt. 2. Add ice and stir the mixture for about 20-30 seconds or until well-chilled. 3. Strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe glass. 4. Express the lemon twist over the drink and then drop it in alongside the brandied cherry for garnish. Glass: Serve in a coupe glass to maintain the elegance and allow the aromas to concentrate, enhancing the sipping experience. The Velvet Eclipse is a sophisticated choice, perfect for an after-dinner conversation or a reflective moment at the end of the day.
