Instructions

The Velvet Ember is a cozy, whiskey-based cocktail that exudes warmth and comfort, perfect for quiet evenings by the fire. It blends the rich smokiness of whiskey with common household ingredients that add sweetness, zest, and a creamy texture, creating a delightful contrast that appeals to various palates. Ingredients: - 2 oz whiskey (preferably a smooth, well-aged variety) - 1 oz fresh lemon juice (about half a lemon) - 1 oz honey syrup (equal parts honey and warm water mixed together) - 1 egg white (for froth and a silky mouthfeel) - 3 dashes of bitters (aromatic or angostura, which are common in many households) - A small pinch of ground cinnamon for garnish - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. In a shaker, combine the whiskey, fresh lemon juice, and honey syrup. 2. Add the egg white to the shaker. This will not add flavor but will give your cocktail a frothy, creamy top. 3. Begin dry shaking (shaking without ice) for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 4. After the dry shake, fill the shaker with ice and shake again vigorously for another 15-20 seconds to chill and dilute the drink appropriately. 5. Strain the mixture into a chilled rocks glass filled with fresh ice. 6. Add three dashes of bitters on top of the foam. 7. Gently sprinkle the ground cinnamon over the bitters to add a subtle aroma and a hint of spice. 8. Optionally, you can garnish with a twist of lemon peel for an extra zest of citrus. The Velvet Ember offers a unique, smooth, and slightly sweet drinking experience with an inviting appearance, especially appealing during the colder months. The household ingredients make it accessible, while the presentation ensures it feels like a special treat. Serve and enjoy immediately.
