Elder Frost

Elegant, refreshing, and with a delightful floral note, the Elderflower Frost Nova cocktail is a visually striking drink perfect for any sophisticated gathering or a relaxing evening at home. Vodka provides a clean, crisp base, whilst St-Germain adds a touch of sweet elderflower elegance. The crushed ice not only chills the drink but also creates a slushy-like consistency that is both fun and indulgent. Ingredients: - 1 1/2 oz Premium Vodka - 1 oz St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur - 3/4 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/2 oz Simple Syrup - 2-3 Fresh Mint Leaves - Sparkling Water - Crushed Ice - Edible Flower or Lemon Twist for Garnish Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the fresh mint leaves lightly to release their aroma and essential oils. 2. Add the premium vodka, St-Germain elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with crushed ice and shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Take a highball glass and fill it to the top with more crushed ice, creating a frosty canvas for your cocktail. 5. Strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass over the crushed ice, creating a layered effect. 6. Top the cocktail off with a splash of sparkling water, adding effervescence and a slight dilution for balance. 7. Garnish with an edible flower or a lemon twist, placing it atop the drink to enhance its visual appeal. Serve immediately with a reusable straw or sip directly from the glass to enjoy the cascading flavors of the Elderflower Frost Nova.
