Description: The Velvet Monarch is a sophisticated and luxurious cocktail that pays homage to the opulence and rich flavor profile of Louis XIII Cognac. This sumptuous drink combines the regal essence of the cognac with complementary ingredients that accentuate its layered complexity. With a touch of herbal sweetness and a hint of citrus, the Velvet Monarch is a drink fit for royalty, perfect for a special celebration or as an elegant nightcap. Ingredients: - 1 1/2 oz Louis XIII Cognac - 1/2 oz Grand Marnier - 1/4 oz Amaro Nonino - 2 dashes of Peychaud's Bitters - 1 barspoon of honey syrup (equal parts honey and water) - Orange twist for garnish - Gold leaf for garnish (optional) Instructions: 1. Combine Louis XIII Cognac, Grand Marnier, Amaro Nonino, Peychaud's Bitters, and honey syrup in a mixing glass. 2. Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir gently for 20-30 seconds to chill and dilute the drink without over-diluting it. 3. Strain the mixture into a chilled crystal snifter or a double old-fashioned glass over a large ice sphere or cube. 4. Express the oils of an orange twist over the drink and then gently rub the twist around the rim of the glass before placing it in the drink as garnish. 5. Optionally, carefully place a delicate gold leaf on the surface of the drink for an added touch of elegance. Glass: Serve in a crystal snifter or a double old-fashioned glass to truly appreciate the aroma and the complexities of the Louis XIII cognac. The choice of glassware further enhances the luxurious experience of the Velvet Monarch.
