Mystical Gold
By JUAN JESÚS SANDOVAL
México
The cocktail that welcomed me to my beautiful job was a carajillo, so for me it is an honor that my first competition is with liquor 43
Cocktail Inspiration
My inspiration was both cultures and representing Mexico with our flavors
Ingredients
- 30 Ml. Licor 43 Original
- 15 Ml. Mezcal
- 10 Ml. ginger beer reduction with angostura bitter
- 3 Dashes Saline solution 80:20
- 7 Drops Soy lecithin
- 45 Ml. Spicy cold brew with coriander seed, pink pepper and cardamom
Method
Cocktail Preparation
- In a mixing glass add liqueur 43 original, spicy cold brew, saline solution and the Mexican touch: mezcal
- Perform the stir method for 30 seconds and then serve in a previously chilled short glass.
- To our ginger beer reduction add soy lecithin to then emulate and thus obtain our ginger beer air
- Place our air at the top of the cocktail simulating the foam of a classic shaked carajillo
- We finish decorating with edible golden petals and now our mystical Gold is ready to drink.
Coffee Preparation
- Heat 500 ml of natural water for two hours at a temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit, along with 6g of coriander seeds, 4g of pink pepper and 2g of cardamom.
- Now that our infusion is ready, we must add 50g of medium-high roasted ground coffee.
- Let it marinate for 12 hours in a cold environment or preferably in the refrigerator.
