Instructions

Inspired by the allure and secrecy of the Prohibition era, Velvet Midnight is a modern twist on classic speakeasy cocktails. It captures the essence of clandestine celebrations with a luxurious blend of flavors, guaranteed to transport you back to the 1920s with a contemporary flourish. Served in a sleek coupe glass, this cocktail not only tantalizes the taste buds but also enchants the eye with its deep, mysterious hue. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Gin (preferably a botanical-rich brand for depth) - 0.75 oz Blackberry liqueur - 0.5 oz Velvet Falernum (for a touch of spice and sweetness) - 0.5 oz Fresh lemon juice (to add a crisp, citrusy edge) - 1 Egg white (for a silky, frothy texture) - A dash of activated charcoal powder (for a mesmerizing, midnight color) - Edible gold leaf (for garnish, adding a touch of opulence) Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, blackberry liqueur, Velvet Falernum, fresh lemon juice, and egg white. 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to create a rich foam from the egg white. 3. Add a small dash of activated charcoal powder to the shaker, along with a handful of ice cubes, and shake again vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass, ensuring a smooth, frothy top layer. 5. Carefully place a piece of edible gold leaf on the foam to garnish. Serve immediately and watch as your guests marvel at this modern nod to prohibition-era sophistication. Velvet Midnight is more than just a cocktail; it's an experience that evokes the mystery, excitement, and elegance of a time gone by, all while celebrating the innovation and creativity of today's mixology.
