Passport Stout

Description: Inspired by the surprises found on every great journey, the Passport Stout playfully masquerades as a classic pint of dark beer but reveals itself as something entirely unexpected. This cocktail blends the warmth of French brandy and Caribbean rum with the delicate sweetness of elderflower, hints of citrus, and the silky texture of egg white, crowned with a creamy head. It's a glass full of unscripted delight—floral, woody, and bright, with a familiar look that invites you to discover the world with every sip. Serve in: Traditional pint glass (16oz/475ml), filled to about 200ml, leaving space for the creamy foam to mimic stout. Ingredients: • 30ml St-Rémy Brandy • 30ml Planteray (Plantation) Original Dark Rum • 15ml BOLS Elderflower Liqueur • 20ml brown sugar syrup (2:1 ratio) • 25ml super juice (a citric acid-citric peel blend; if unavailable, use 15ml fresh lemon juice + 10ml fresh lime juice) • 20ml egg white solution • 3 dashes aromatic bitters (e.g., Angostura) Directions: Combine all ingredients in a Boston shaker with cubed ice. Shake well until chilled and frothy. Strain into a chilled pint glass, letting the thick foam settle and form a ‘head’ that mimics a classic stout. Optionally, garnish with a gentle sprinkle of nutmeg or a lemon zest twist on the rim to intrigue the nose as you take that first sip. Surprise your guests—and yourself—with a journey in a glass.
