Instructions

Dive into an ethereal mixology experience with Lunar Reflection, a cocktail that embodies the mystique of a moonlit night. This cocktail incorporates the advanced technique of fat washing for a velvety texture and a sophisticated depth of flavor. Served in a chilled coupe glass, its appearance is as captivating as its taste. Ingredients: - 2 oz Fat-washed gin (use a high-quality gin and infuse it with coconut oil for a subtle, tropical undertone) - 0.5 oz Blue Curaçao (for a vibrant, moonlit hue) - 0.75 oz Fresh lemon juice (to add a crisp, zesty balance) - 0.5 oz Lavender syrup (for a floral whisper that complements the gin) - Egg white (from one egg, to create a silky foam and a luxurious mouthfeel) - Edible glitter (blue or silver, for a mesmerizing, starry-night effect in the foam) - A sprig of lavender or a twist of lemon peel, for garnish Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing the fat-washed gin. Melt a tablespoon of coconut oil and combine it with 750ml of gin. Let it infuse for at least 4 hours at room temperature. Then, freeze the mixture to solidify the fat. Once solid, remove the fat layer and strain the gin through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to ensure clarity. 2. In a shaker, combine the fat-washed gin, Blue Curaçao, fresh lemon juice, and lavender syrup. Shake vigorously without ice to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add a scoop of ice and shake again vigorously. This dual shaking method ensures a velvety texture and a beautiful foam layer on top of the cocktail. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to ensure a smooth pour without any ice shards or egg residue. 5. Carefully sprinkle edible glitter over the foam for a mesmerizing, galaxy-like effect. 6. Garnish with a sprig of lavender or a twist of lemon peel, resting it delicately on the foam. Lunar Reflection is not merely a cocktail; it's an experience. The interplay of floral, citrus, and tropical notes, combined with the visually stunning presentation, makes it a showstopper at any gathering. Enjoy the journey to the moon and back with each sip.
