Instructions

The Velvet Twilight is a mesmerizing gin-based cocktail that combines the botanical richness of gin with the velvety smoothness of cream and a hint of floral lavender, creating a sophisticated and innovative drink that is as visually stunning as it is delicious. Served in a chilled coupe glass, it's the perfect balance of elegance and flair, ideal for evening gatherings. Ingredients: - 2 oz premium dry gin - 1/2 oz lavender simple syrup (to make: simmer equal parts water and sugar with a handful of culinary lavender until the sugar is dissolved, then strain and cool) - 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice - 1 oz heavy cream - A dash of violet liqueur - Edible violet petals for garnish Instructions: 1. Chill a coupe glass by placing it in the freezer or filling it with ice water for a few minutes. 2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, lavender simple syrup, lemon juice, heavy cream, and violet liqueur. Fill the shaker with ice. 3. Shake vigorously until well-chilled and the mixture is sufficiently aerated (the cream should become slightly frothy). 4. Discard the ice from the coupe glass and strain the mixture into the glass, ensuring a smooth and creamy consistency. 5. Garnish with edible violet petals, floating them on the surface of the drink to enhance its visual appeal. The Velvet Twilight offers a unique tasting experience, where the botanical notes of the gin are beautifully complemented by the fragrant lavender and the subtle floral undertone of violet liqueur, all rounded off with the creamy texture that makes each sip a luxurious indulgence.
