Instructions

The Velvet Smoke is a sophisticated and modern cocktail that showcases the bold flavors of rye whiskey with a touch of herbal complexity and a smoky whisper. This drink is perfect for those who appreciate the warmth of whiskey without the sweetness of added sugars or the fruitiness of citrus or other fruits. Ingredients: - 2 oz rye whiskey - 1/2 oz dry vermouth - 1/4 oz Benedictine liqueur - 2 dashes of Angostura bitters - 1 dash of smoked sea salt solution (dissolve smoked sea salt in water at a 1:1 ratio) - Garnish: Sprig of fresh rosemary (lightly charred for aroma, optional) Instructions: 1. Fill a mixing glass with ice. 2. Pour the rye whiskey, dry vermouth, Benedictine liqueur, and Angostura bitters into the glass. 3. Add a dash of the smoked sea salt solution. 4. Stir the ingredients well until chilled. 5. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. 6. If desired, gently flame a sprig of fresh rosemary using a kitchen torch or lighter and place it briefly in the drink to impart a smoky aroma, then rest it on the glass's rim as a garnish. Type of Glass: Coupe Glass The Velvet Smoke offers a rich and aromatic experience that balances the spicy kick of rye with the herbal notes of the Benedictine, the crispness of the dry vermouth, and the earthy undertones of bitters, all elevated by the subtle nuance of smoked sea salt. It's an elegant choice for a refined evening or as a nightcap to unwind after a long day.
