Fat Wash

Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Fat Washing

1

Prepare the Fat Wash

In a heatproof container, combine the cacao butter and Maker's Mark bourbon. Heat gently until the cacao butter is fully melted and combined with the bourbon. Stir well to ensure even mixing.

2

Chill and Separate

Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then place it in the refrigerator for several hours or until the fat solidifies on top. Once solid, carefully remove the fat layer and strain the bourbon through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any remaining solids.

Cocktail Preparation

3

Brew the Tea

In a small pot, bring 200 ml of water to a boil. Remove from heat and add the lapsang souchong tea leaves. Allow the tea to steep for 5 minutes, then strain and set aside.

4

Mix the Cocktail

In a heatproof glass or mug, combine 50 ml of Lagavulin 8 scotch, 1 tablespoon of grated ginger, and 1 tablespoon of marmalade. Pour in the brewed lapsang souchong tea and stir well to combine all ingredients.

5

Add the Fat Washed Bourbon

Finally, add 50 ml of the fat-washed Maker's Mark bourbon to the glass, stirring gently to incorporate. Optionally, garnish with a slice of fresh ginger or a spoonful of marmalade on top.
