The Velvet Conquistador
AI-generatedMediumRocks
A stately, aromatic brandy cocktail draped in the warmth of cinnamon and the cool elegance of French orangerie.
Ingredients
- ◆1 1/2 oz Brandy
- ◆3/4 oz Cointreau
- ◆1/2 oz Dry vermouth
- ◆1/2 oz Lemon juice
- ◆1/4 oz Simple syrup
- ◆2 dashes Angostura bitters
Method
- 11. Lightly dust the inside of a chilled rocks glass with ground cinnamon and set aside.
- 22. Combine brandy, Cointreau, dry vermouth, lemon juice, simple syrup, and bitters in a shaker filled with ice.
- 33. Shake firmly for 12–15 seconds until thoroughly chilled.
- 44. Strain over a single large ice cube into the cinnamon-dusted rocks glass.
- 55. Grate a whisper of fresh nutmeg over the surface.
- 66. Run a lemon slice around the rim and place it on the edge of the glass.
PRO TIP
Chill the rocks glass in the freezer for at least 10 minutes before dusting with cinnamon — a cold glass makes the spice bloom aromatically when the cold liquid hits it.
Garnish — Lemon slice on rim with fresh nutmeg grating
