Instructions

This cocktail captures the essence and allure of a lunar eclipse with its layered appearance and intriguing flavor profile. It employs the technique of density layering to create a visual masterpiece that's as captivating as the night sky. Served in a highball glass, this drink not only tantalizes the taste buds but is also a feast for the eyes. **Glass:** Highball **Ingredients:** - 1.5 oz Gin (Preferably one with floral notes) - 0.75 oz Crème de Violette - 0.5 oz Charcoal Simple Syrup* - 2 oz Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice - 1 oz Egg White - Sparkling Water to Top - Edible Silver Dust for Garnish **Instructions:** 1. **Charcoal Simple Syrup Preparation:** Begin by making the charcoal simple syrup. In a saucepan over medium heat, dissolve 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of water. Once dissolved, remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of activated charcoal powder until fully integrated. Allow to cool and store in a sterilized bottle. 2. **Cocktail Construction:** In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, crème de violette, lemon juice, and egg white. Dry shake (no ice) vigorously for about 30 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with ice, leaving enough room for the sparkling water. 5. Slowly pour the charcoal simple syrup over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect at the bottom of the glass. 6. Carefully top the drink with sparkling water to maintain the layers. 7. For a touch of cosmic wonder, lightly dust the top with edible silver dust. 8. Serve immediately with a stirring rod to allow your guests to create their own eclipse by mixing the layers. This Lunar Eclipse Spritz is not only a delight to the senses but also an embodiment of advanced mixology techniques, offering a taste that's out of this world.
