Instructions

Immerse yourself in a saga of flavors inspired by the legendary tales of Knut the Great and the formidable Knýtlinga dynasty. This cocktail is a bold blend of Nordic spirits and ingredients, symbolizing the strength and exploration spirit of the Vikings. Served in a traditional horn-shaped glass to honor the Vikings' storied maritime journeys. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz Aquavit, a Scandinavian spirit embodying the essence of the North - 0.5 oz Mead, the ancient drink of the Norse gods, to sweeten the voyage - 0.5 oz Lingonberry syrup, for a touch of Nordic wilderness - 0.25 oz Fernet, adding a layer of herbal mystery like the misty fjords - 2 dashes of orange bitters, representing the distant lands reached by Norse explorers - Sparkling water, to top, like the frothy waves of the northern seas - Garnish: a sprig of dill and a lingonberry (or cranberry if not available) Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the Aquavit, mead, lingonberry syrup, Fernet, and orange bitters. 2. Shake well until the outside of the shaker feels cold. 3. Strain into a horn-shaped glass filled with fresh ice, to evoke the Viking longships. 4. Top with a splash of sparkling water, like the sparkling northern waters. 5. Garnish with a sprig of dill and a single lingonberry on top, symbolizing the flora of the Nordic lands. The Viking Voyage is a cocktail that tells a story, a mixture as complex and adventurous as the saga of Knut the Great and his descendants. Each sip is a journey through the landscapes of Scandinavia and the rich history of the Viking age.
