Description: The Velvet Twilight Sour is a sophisticated and enchanting twist on the classic Bourbon Sour. This cocktail combines the rich depth of bourbon with the unique flavors of blackcurrant and a gentle hint of vanilla, creating a velvety texture and a lingering twilight-like mystique on the palate. It's an ideal choice for those seeking a refined yet adventurous drink experience. Ingredients: - 2 oz bourbon - 1 oz blackcurrant liqueur - 1 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice - 1/2 oz vanilla simple syrup (to make, dissolve equal parts sugar and water with a splash of pure vanilla extract over low heat) - 1 egg white (optional, for a frothy texture) - Dash of aromatic bitters - Blackcurrant or lemon twist, for garnish Glass: Coupe glass Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, add the bourbon, blackcurrant liqueur, lemon juice, vanilla simple syrup, egg white (if using), and a dash of aromatic bitters. 2. Dry shake the mixture (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white and create a frothy texture. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again for an additional 15 seconds until well-chilled. 4. Double strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass to ensure a smooth and velvety drink. 5. Garnish with a blackcurrant or lemon twist, and serve immediately.
