Eternal Flame

Created by Victoria D'amato-Moran on behalf of Easy Leaf Products

• Glass - Champagne Coupe
• Short Straw
• Crushed Ice
• 1 oz. Partida Anejo Tequila
• 1 oz. Roasted Jalapeno Syrup*
• 2 oz. Hibiscus Tea**
• Squeeze fresh lemon
• 4 jalapenos
• 1 cup organic sugar cane
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup hibiscus flowers (Hibiscus flowers can be found at a local Latin market)
• 1 lemon
• 2 limes

• Thin lime wheels
• 1 jalapeno pepper
• ORO FINO Petals (edible gold)
• ORO FINO Leaves (edible gold)

For the Roasted Jalapeno Syrup*:
For the Roasted jalapeno syrup, roast peppers over a flame until all sides are charred. Wrap the peppers in a paper towel and let sweat for 10 minutes. Using the same paper towel remove the charred skin. With a knife, cut the pepper in half and discard the membrane. Dice into small pieces. In a small pot, add the sugar and water. Heat until sugar has dissolved. Add the chopped peppers simmer on low for 1/2 hour. The final result will be smoky, sweet and spicy.

For the Hibiscus Tea**:
Add the 1 cup hibiscus flowers to 2 cups water. Bring to a boil, turn off heat and let steep, until the tea is a dark red, which will result in a few minutes. The flavor is tart.

Preparing the Drink:
Add crushed ice to a chilled Champagne Coupe. Place ORO FINO petals in the crushed ice so that the gold is showing from the outside of glass.

In a chilled Tumbler, add the Tequila, Syrup, Hibiscus Tea and a squeeze of 1/2 a lemon. Add ice, shake and strain over the crushed ice. Use your creativity for a garnish….either slice limes thinly and place on rim; or for add splendor, take an extra jalapeno pepper and wrap it in a half sheet of gold. Hold the pepper by the stem and lay it on the sheet of gold. Roll the pepper over….you will use less than half a sheet to cover your pepper. Then place the gilded pepper in the crushed ice.

• 2 oz. VeeV Acai Spirit
• 1 oz. Bossa Nova Acai juice
• Starfruit
• ARGENTO FINO (edible silver) Sprinkles

To Make Strawberry Juice:
Wash strawberries well. Remove greens and any white inside the strawberry. Use a blender or juicer to extract strawberry juice. Strain to removes seeds if using a blender. Tip: A small box of strawberries yields 1 cup of juice.

To Make Lemon Sugar Syrup:
In a small pot, add 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water and 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice. Bring to a boil and let simmer for a few minutes. The result should be sweet and lemony tart.

To Make Dried Blueberries:
Using a dehydrator, place the fresh blueberries on the rack, let dry until hard and crisp – approximately 1 ½ days. Put in a small processor and pulse until a fine powder forms. Pour the powdered blueberries onto a plate.

To Create The Drink:
Combine all liquid ingredients in a chilled shaker. Take the cocktail glass and lightly rim the glass with a wedge of lemon. Invert the moistened rim onto the plate of blueberry powder to rim the edge of the glass. Add ice to your tumbler, shake, and strain into the chilled 6 oz cocktail glass.

The World In Your Hands

The garnish on this drink is Victoria’s representation of our World.

• 2 oz. Skyy Passion Fruit Vodka
• .5 oz. NAVAN Vanilla Cognac
• .5 oz Passion Fruit Puree or Juice
• 1 cup water*
• 1 cup sugar*
• 4 oz. Heavy Whipped Cream**
• 1 oz. Frangelico**
• Easy Leaf Products ORO FINO Petals (edible gold)
• Easy Leaf Products ARGENTO FINO Petals (edible silver)

*To create the “world” garnish:
Mix all liquid ingredients in a cocktail shaker and then pour into a cocktail/martini glass. To make the “world” add 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar to a pot. Using a candy thermometer, boil until the sugar reaches 310 degrees - which is “hard candy” stage. Take off the flame and let rest for about 3 minute. Prepare your counter with wax paper and cooking oil spray. Spray cooking oil on a hemisphere mold (or the back of a soup ladle without the handle). After the sugar mixture has rested for about 3 minutes, using a spoon start stirring the sugar. You will see a slight change in the consistency as it stiffens a bit, but be careful not to over stir making it too stiff to work with. Pull the spoon out of the sugar and start waving back and forth over the mold. Keep doing this until you get a basket weaving effect. Let the mold sit until completely hard which is about 5 minutes.

**To Create the Frangelico Whipped Cream Float:
Mix heavy whipping cream and Frangelico using a hand blender to create a nice pouring mixture. Set aside until the garnish is ready.

To Create the Liquid Portion of the Drink:
Add Skyy Passion Fruit Vodka and NAVAN in a cocktail shaker, add ice, shake and strain into a 6 oz. cocktail glass.

To Assemble the Drink:
Pour the Vodka and NAVAN mixture into a martini glass. Top with the Frangelico Whipped Cream Float. Decorate the World with ORO FINO and ARGENTO FINO petals before pulling off the mold, by using the bamboo tweezers, and placing petals on the sugar world. Then, being very gentle, pull the “world” off the mold and place it on top of the drink.
