Cocktail Ingredients
Method
Cocktail Preparation
Prepare the Glass
Begin by chilling a cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.
Muddle Mint Leaves
In a cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear them too much; you want to infuse the flavor without creating a mushy texture.
Add Liquids
To the muddled mint, pour in the sake, yuzu juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice cubes, ensuring that it’s at least three-quarters full.
Shake the Mixture
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This will chill the mixture and combine the flavors.
Strain into Glass
Empty the chilled cocktail glass of ice water. Using a fine mesh strainer, strain the cocktail mixture into the glass, ensuring that no mint leaves make it into the final drink.
Top with Asahi
Slowly pour the Asahi beer over the top of the strained cocktail mixture. This will create a beautiful layered effect.
Garnish and Serve
Finally, garnish the drink with a strip of yuzu peel. Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing Asahi Apocalypse cocktail!
