Instructions

In the spirit of the Prohibition era, Whispers of The Speakeasy is a cocktail that harkens back to the secretive and innovative spirit of the 1920s, combining classic ingredients with a modern twist. Designed to be both a nod to history and a contemporary pleasure, this drink offers a complex, multi-layered taste experience. Serve it in a classic coupe glass, embodying the elegance and clandestinity of the speakeasy bars. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin (a nod to the Prohibition favorite) - 1/2 oz Maraschino Liqueur (for a hint of sweet sophistication) - 1/2 oz Freshly squeezed lemon juice (to cut through the sweetness) - 1/4 oz Crème de Violette (for a subtle floral note and a mesmerizing color) - 1 Egg white (for a silky smooth texture and a foamy top) - A dash of Angostura Bitters (for complexity) - Ice - Lemon twist and a brandied cherry, for garnish Instructions: 1. In a shaker, combine gin, Maraschino Liqueur, lemon juice, Crème de Violette, and egg white. This combination of ingredients offers a bridge between the traditional and the innovative, capturing the essence of a time when bartenders had to be both resourceful and creative. 2. Dry shake (shake without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds. This is to ensure the egg white is properly emulsified, creating a smooth texture and a rich, creamy foam. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again vigorously for about 10-15 seconds. This second shake chills the mixture while maintaining the foam created by the egg white. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to ensure a smooth texture, free of ice chips or egg residues. 5. Garnish with a dash of Angostura Bitters delicately placed atop the foam. Then, artfully twist a lemon peel over the drink to release its essential oils and rim the glass with it before placing it in the drink alongside a brandied cherry. Enjoy the Whispers of The Speakeasy, a drink that transports you back to an era of mystery and prohibition, where every sip tells a story of innovation, resilience, and the enduring allure of a well-crafted cocktail.
