Instructions

Description: The Celestial Sphere is a visually stunning and aromatic cocktail that combines molecular gastronomy with classic mixology. This cocktail uses the advanced technique of spherification to create caviar-like spheres that burst with flavor when consumed, offering a multisensory experience reminiscent of a cosmic journey. Ingredients: - 2 oz gin - 1 oz elderflower liqueur - 1 oz fresh lime juice - 1/2 oz simple syrup - 4 oz pear juice - 1/4 teaspoon calcium lactate - 1/2 teaspoon sodium alginate - Edible silver glitter (garnish) - Dehydrated pear slice (garnish) Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing the pear spheres. Mix the pear juice with calcium lactate and pour the mixture into a small squeeze bottle. 2. In a separate bowl, mix cold distilled water with sodium alginate until fully dissolved to create the spherification bath. 3. Gently drop small droplets of the pear juice mixture into the spherification bath using the squeeze bottle. Let them sit for about 2 minutes until they form spheres. 4. Rinse the spheres in a cold water bath to stop the gelling process and set them aside. 5. In a cocktail shaker, combine gin, elderflower liqueur, lime juice, and simple syrup. Add ice and shake well. 6. Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass. 7. Carefully spoon a few pear spheres into the drink to float on the surface. 8. Add a pinch of edible silver glitter for a shimmering, celestial effect. 9. Garnish with a dehydrated pear slice on the rim of the glass. Serve in: Martini glass The Celestial Sphere is not just a drink but an experience, bringing together taste, texture, and visual appeal with each sip.
