Instructions

The Sonoma Sunset is a cocktail that elegantly captures the essence of Sonoma County's breathtaking sunsets, combining the lush, complex flavors of local produce and artisan spirits. This drink is a symphony of sweet, bitter, and herbal notes, designed to transport you to California's picturesque landscapes with every sip. Served in a chilled coupe glass, this cocktail not only tantalizes the taste buds but is also a feast for the eyes. **Ingredients:** - 1 oz Prohibition Spirits Nocino - 1 oz Prohibition Spirits Orange Apero Spritz Americano - 1 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/2 oz Simple Syrup - 1 Egg White (for a silky texture and a frothy top) - A splash of Soda Water - Ice Cubes - Garnish: A strip of orange zest and a sprinkle of crushed black walnuts **Preparation:** 1. **Chill the coupe glass:** Before you start mixing your drink, place the coupe glass in the freezer for a few minutes. A chilled glass will keep your cocktail cold and enhance its flavors. 2. **Mix your cocktail:** In a cocktail shaker, combine the Nocino, Orange Apero Spritz Americano, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white. 3. **Dry shake:** Before adding ice, give these ingredients a vigorous shake. This process, known as a dry shake, helps to emulsify the egg white, creating a smooth and frothy consistency. 4. **Add ice and shake again:** Now, add a generous amount of ice cubes to the shaker and shake vigorously once more. This second shake chills the drink and adds the final layer of froth. 5. **Strain and serve:** Strain the mixture into the chilled coupe glass. The double strain technique (using both the shaker's own strainer and a fine mesh strainer) ensures a smooth texture by removing any remaining ice shards or egg remnants. 6. **Top with soda water:** Add a splash of soda water to introduce a subtle effervescence that brightens the drink. 7. **Garnish and enjoy:** Finally, garnish your Sonoma Sunset with a strip of orange zest and a sprinkle of crushed black walnuts. The zest adds a burst of citrus aroma that complements the drink's flavors, while the walnuts offer an engaging contrast with their earthy bitterness. The Sonoma Sunset cocktail, with its rich blend of walnut and mandarin orange liqueurs, balanced by the tartness of lemon and the smoothness of egg white, is a tribute to the innovative spirit and natural splendor of Sonoma. Enjoy this drink as the perfect ending to a day or the beginning of an enchanting evening. Cheers!
