Instructions

The Velvet Wealth is an indulgent cocktail that seamlessly blends the richness of fat-washed bourbon with luxurious ingredients to create a sense of opulence and fortune in every sip. This cocktail is designed to pair wonderfully with a succulent main meat dish, such as a perfectly cooked ribeye steak. Ingredients: - 2 oz bacon fat-washed bourbon - 1/2 oz Grand Marnier - 1/4 oz Amaro Nonino - 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice - 1/2 oz honey syrup (equal parts honey and water) - 2 dashes of Angostura bitters - Gold leaf for garnish - Orange twist for garnish Bacon Fat-Washed Bourbon: - 1 cup of bourbon - 1/3 cup of cooked bacon fat Instructions for Bacon Fat-Washed Bourbon: 1. Cook the bacon in a pan and reserve the fat. Allow the fat to cool slightly. 2. Pour the bacon fat into a container with the bourbon. Allow this to infuse at room temperature for 4-6 hours. 3. After infusion, place the container in the freezer overnight. The fat will solidify at the top. 4. Remove the solid fat, and strain the bourbon through a cheesecloth to remove any remaining particles. Cocktail Preparation: 1. In a mixing glass, combine the bacon fat-washed bourbon, Grand Marnier, Amaro Nonino, lemon juice, honey syrup, and Angostura bitters. 2. Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir until well-chilled. 3. Strain into a chilled old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube. 4. Apply a gold leaf, very delicately, on the surface of the drink as a symbol of wealth and fortune. 5. Garnish with an orange twist to enhance the citrus notes and add a pop of color. Pairing Suggestion: Serve the Velvet Wealth with a main dish of a ribeye steak, seasoned with coarse salt and black pepper, grilled to perfection. The smokiness from the steak will complement the rich, bacon-infused bourbon, while the slight sweetness and citrus notes of the cocktail will cut through the fat and enhance the taste of the meat. Glass: Old-fashioned glass Enjoy this luxurious cocktail with a sumptuous meat dish to experience a taste of fortune and richness that is sure to impress any guest.
