5 Cocktails to Say Goodbye to Summer
Check out these 5 classic cocktails to say goodbye to summer. Soak in the last days of sun and fun.
Purified Mai Tai
Town & Country Resort (San Diego, CA)
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ oz Jamaican Rum
- ¾ oz Lime Juice
- ½ oz Orange Liqueur (Dry Curacao, Grand Marnier, Cointreau, etc.)
- ½ oz Orgeat
- ¼ oz Demerara (This an optional addition for those who enjoy a cocktail on the sweeter side)
- Milk wash with 1 oz milk
Preparation: Take all the ingredients mixed together and slowly pour over 1 oz of whole milk while gently stirring. Do not pour the milk into the cocktail solution as it is important the cocktail is slowly added to the milk. Let the new cocktail solution sit and separate to isolate the casein proteins from the whole milk. Place a coffee filter or several layers of fine mesh cheese cloth into a funnel or chinois, and pour your new cocktail solution into the filter you have set up. Let the milk added cocktail solution filter completely through the funnel/chinois into a clean container. Once the cocktail has filtered all the way through the funnel for the first time, place the filter/funnel system over another clean empty container/bottle. Take the cocktail and filter it again through the same funnel. This is the most crucial step since it is not the coffee filter or cheese cloth that is clarifying the cocktail, it is the casein proteins extracted from the whole milk. Once finished straining, you now have a clear and delicious cocktail.
