Gothic Mocktail + Cocktail Infusion
To Those Who Never Left
Raise a glass to spectral elegance and one final toast. The Phantom’s Toast brings together Bartlett pear, sweet apple, elderflower, lemon peel, and rose petals in a fruit-and-floral infusion inspired by an abandoned ballroom.
Prepare with pear juice or white grape juice, then serve chilled with sparkling water for a mocktail—or add vodka or gin for a cocktail.
Included: One quart jar containing 3 oz (85 g) of dry fruit and botanicals. Juice, sparkling water, and alcohol are purchased separately.
Yield: Approximately 2 cups of pressed, strained infusion, making four servings with 4 fl oz of infusion each.
Preparation: Empty the jar into a saucepan and add 4 cups pear juice or white grape juice. Heat until steaming; do not boil. Remove from heat, cover, and steep 10–15 minutes, tasting after 10 minutes. Press the fruit, strain, and chill.
Mocktail: Pour 4 fl oz infusion over ice and top with 2 fl oz sparkling water.
Cocktail: Pour 4 fl oz infusion over ice, add 1–1½ fl oz vodka or gin, and finish with a splash of sparkling water.
Ingredients: Freeze-dried Bartlett pear, freeze-dried Fuji or Gala apple, elderflower, lemon peel, rose petals.
Storage: Store dry mix sealed in a cool, dry place. Refrigerate prepared infusion promptly and use within 3 days.
