Enchanting Elixir: Necromancer’s Ember Cocktail

Greetings, cocktail connoisseurs and aficionados of the arcane! Today, we’re delving into the mystical realms of mixology to unveil a bewitching concoction known as the Necromancer Cocktail. This enigmatic elixir blends the potent powers of vodka, creme de Violette, simple syrup, and mezcal, creating a spellbinding experience for your taste buds. So, grab your cauldron shaker, and let’s explore the dark arts of cocktail crafting.

Ingredients

1 ½ oz Vodka
½ oz Creme de Violette
½ oz Simple Syrup
½ oz Mezcal

Salt the rim with flake salt.

*BONUS* If you’d like a little extra poison, pre-rinse the glass with absinthe! Be careful not to over-coat the glass.

Prepare the Potion:
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, and pour in the vodka, creme de Violette, simple syrup, and mezcal. This combination of spirits will awaken the spirits of flavor in your glass.

Enchanting Elixir Fusion:
Shake the mixture vigorously. Feel the energy flowing through you as you shake – you are summoning the essence of the Necromancer Cocktail.

The Mystic Pour:
Strain the elixir into a chilled coup-style glass, the more goblet-looking the better. Watch as the potion cascades into the glass, ready to bewitch anyone who dares to take a sip.

Garnish with Mystery:
For a finishing touch, garnish your Necromancer Cocktail with a twist of orange peel. The oils from the peel will add an extra layer of mystique to your creation.

Sip and Savor:
With your potion complete, take a moment to admire the hue – a deep, mysterious purple. Then, take a sip. Let the flavors dance on your palate, as you experience the perfect balance of sweetness, smokiness, and floral notes.

PRO TIP: To add another level of professionalism, if you have a smoke machine, you can add smoke to the top of the drink! A smoke bubble is definitely NEXT LEVEL. An alternative is, to use dry ice. HOWEVER, ensure the dry ice has completely dissolved before it is consumed.

The Tale Behind the Necromancer:

Legend has it that the Necromancer Cocktail was created by an ancient mixologist who possessed extraordinary powers. They crafted this elixir to channel the very essence of the mystical world into a glass. Each ingredient was carefully chosen to represent an element of the arcane: vodka for its clarity and purity, creme de Violette for its deep, enigmatic floral notes, simple syrup to sweeten the potion, and mezcal to add a touch of smoky mystique.


The Necromancer Cocktail is more than a drink; it’s a journey into the unknown, a sip of the supernatural, and an experience that will leave you enchanted. So, next time you find yourself craving a taste of magic, gather your ingredients, follow the incantation above, and conjure this mesmerizing elixir. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility – so please enjoy this potion responsibly.

Cheers to the mystical and magical! May your evenings be filled with enchantment and your glasses be filled with the Necromancer Cocktail.
