This drink was inspired by a movie which would probably make you drink a crisp and floral cocktail and this one definitely fits with richberry. Experience the twist from bitter to sour taste turns to sweet invigorating taste.
Ingredients:
2 oz (60 ml) gin
¾ oz (22 ml) dry vermouth
¼ oz (7 ml) crème de violette
Absinthe rinse
Long orange twist, for garnish
Method:
In a mixing glass, combine the gin, vermouth and crème de violette with ice and stir. Rinse a coupe glass with absinthe. You can do this by pouring a tiny bit of absinthe into the glass, swirling it to coat the glass and then discarding the absinthe. Strain your cocktail into the absinthe-rinsed glass. Express the oils from the twist by squeezing it in half on top of the drink and then slide it around the rim of your glass. Then, place the twist in the drink.
Mocktail (non-alcoholic): If you wish to have a delicious non-alcoholic version, please feel free to take the alcohol out and follow the same procedure.
Consume Miracle Berry: Just before digging in, chew 1 or more freeze-dried miracle berry (this can also be done during the preparation of ingredients). Ensure to remove pits to avoid a bitter taste.
Fact: The active ingredient miraculin from miracle berry will turn sour foods such as lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, non-fat yoghurt and other citrus food to taste sweet without adding sugar. We recommend two halves or 2 servings for maximum effectiveness. Make sure to follow instructions from the back of the packaging.
