Instructions

Indulge in an enchanting blend of smoky, floral, and crisp flavors that capture the essence of a mystical garden at twilight. The Smokey Orchid Reverie is a sophisticated cocktail that balances the robust character of mezcal with delicate floral notes and a refreshing zest. This cocktail is as much a feast for the eyes as it is for the palate, with a captivating purple hue reminiscent of a blooming orchid under the moonlight. Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal (preferably a joven variety for its clear color and pure smoky flavor) - 0.5 oz Crème de Violette (for a touch of sweetness and a stunning purple color) - 0.5 oz Freshly squeezed lime juice (adding a bright, citrusy tang) - 0.25 oz Agave syrup (to complement the mezcal's natural sweetness) - 1 oz Lavender-infused simple syrup (for a floral undertone) - 2 dashes Orange bitters (to add complexity and depth) - Edible orchid or lavender sprig (for garnish) - Ice (for shaking) Glass: - Serve in a chilled coupe glass to showcase the drink's alluring color and to concentrate its intoxicating aromas. Instructions: 1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice to chill the ingredients and help dilute the drink to the perfect strength. 2. Pour the mezcal, Crème de Violette, lime juice, agave syrup, lavender-infused simple syrup, and orange bitters into the shaker. 3. Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds, or until the outside of the shaker feels cold to the touch. 4. Strain the mixture into the chilled coupe glass, taking care to leave any ice shards or unincorporated ingredients behind in the shaker. 5. Lastly, garnish the drink with an edible orchid resting on the surface or a delicate sprig of lavender perched on the rim of the glass. The Smokey Orchid Reverie is not just a cocktail, but rather an immersive experience that transports you to a serene and fragrant garden, with each sip evoking the smoldering embers of mezcal and the tranquil beauty of nighttime florals. Enjoy responsibly and let the reverie take hold.
