Instructions

Description: Velvet Noir is an opulent and luxurious cocktail that marries the warm complexity of cognac with the sumptuous depth of chocolate bitters, complemented by a whisper of vanilla and the rich sweetness of fig. The drink is balanced with a touch of citrus to add brightness, making it a delightful after-dinner sipper or an indulgent treat for a special occasion. Its velvety smoothness is matched by its visual elegance, served in a chilled coupe glass, and garnished with a delicate twist of orange peel that dances on the surface, releasing its aromatic oils. Ingredients: - 2 oz Cognac (preferably VSOP for its smoothness and rich flavor) - 1/2 oz Grand Marnier (for a touch of orange flavor and sweetness) - 1/4 oz Fig syrup (adds a unique, sweet depth) - 2 dashes Chocolate Bitters (for a complex and chocolaty undertone) - 1/4 oz Fresh lemon juice (to balance the sweetness with a touch of acidity) - A tiny drop of Vanilla extract (for its aromatic warmth) - Ice cubes (for chilling and dilution) - Orange peel (for garnish) Glass: Coupe Glass Instructions: 1. Chill the coupe glass by placing it in the freezer or filling it with ice water and setting it aside for a few minutes. 2. In a mixing glass, combine the cognac, Grand Marnier, fig syrup, chocolate bitters, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. 3. Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes and stir the ingredients together until well-chilled, about 20-30 seconds. 4. Discard the ice water from the coupe glass if used, and strain the cocktail mixture into the chilled glass. 5. Express the orange peel over the drink by twisting it to release the oils, and then gently run the peel around the rim of the glass. 6. Drop the orange peel into the cocktail as a garnish or place it on the edge for a visually appealing presentation. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the sophisticated blend of flavors in your Velvet Noir creation.
