Instructions

The Purple Enigma is a visually captivating and flavorfully complex cocktail that marries the botanical essence of gin with the intriguing hues of purple. Served in a chilled coupe glass, this drink is as much a feast for the eyes as it is for the palate. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin (a floral gin is recommended) - 3/4 oz Crème de Violette - 1/2 oz Maraschino Liqueur - 1/2 oz Freshly squeezed lemon juice - 1/4 oz Simple syrup (optional, adjust to taste) - 1 Egg white (for frothiness and texture, optional) - A dash of Butterfly pea flower tea (for natural coloring) - Edible flowers or a twist of lemon peel for garnish Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing a small amount of butterfly pea flower tea. Steep the tea in hot water for a few minutes until a deep blue color is achieved, then allow it to cool to room temperature. 2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, crème de violette, maraschino liqueur, and lemon juice. If a sweeter taste is desired, add simple syrup to your liking. 3. If using the egg white, add it to the shaker to help create a smooth texture and a foamy top. This step is optional, and you can omit the egg white if you prefer. 4. Dry shake (shake without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 5. Fill the shaker with ice and shake again until well-chilled. 6. Double strain the mixture into the chilled coupe glass, ensuring a smooth pour without any ice chips. 7. Slowly pour a dash of the cooled butterfly pea flower tea over the back of a spoon into the drink, which will naturally settle at the bottom, creating a beautiful gradient of purple hues. 8. Garnish with an edible flower or a twist of lemon peel to accentuate the drink's botanical nature. 9. Serve immediately and watch the purple mystery unfold with every sip of the Purple Enigma.
