Main Ingredients
Brown Butter Wash
Method
Preparation of Brown Butter
Brown the Butter
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Allow it to cook until it turns golden brown and develops a nutty aroma, stirring frequently to prevent burning. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Cool and Strain
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the brown butter cool slightly. Once cooled, strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove any milk solids, collecting the clear liquid in a bowl.
Mixing the Cocktail
Add the Ingredients
To the shaker with the brown butter, add 2 oz of Wild Turkey Bourbon, 1 tbsp of Demerara sugar, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.
Shake with Ice
Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and the sugar has dissolved.
Prepare the Glass
Take a rocks glass and add a pinch of smoked salt to the bottom of the glass.
Strain the Cocktail
Strain the cocktail mixture into the prepared rocks glass over fresh ice, allowing the smoked salt to infuse into the drink.
Garnish and Serve
Optionally, garnish with a twist of orange peel or a cherry. Serve immediately and enjoy your Il Barfumoso!
