Time 5m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup water
2 cups granulated sugar
¾ oz grenadine
1 oz blue curaçao
½ oz rich simple syrup
1 ½ oz gin
¾ oz fresh lemon juice
1 cup crushed ice
1 small bunch fresh thyme, plus 2 sprigs, for garnish, divided
¼ teaspoon pink peppercorn, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the rich simple syrup: Add the water and sugar to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 2 minutes, until the sugar is fully dissolved. Transfer to a glass jar and let cool. The syrup will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • Make the cocktail: Add the grenadine, blue curacao, rich simple syrup, gin, and lemon juice to a cocktail shaker and fill with ½ cup (70 G) ice. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds, until combined.
  • Carefully light the bunch of thyme on fire with a kitchen torch. Blow out the flame and invert a highball glass over the thyme to capture the smoke. Let sit for 30 seconds.
  • Fill the glass with the remaining ½ cup ice, strain the cocktail into the glass, and garnish with the remaining 2 sprigs of thyme and the pink peppercorns.
  • Enjoy!

This Black Forest cake was a huge hit at my party! The layers were moist and fluffy, and the chocolate ganache was rich and decadent. The cherries added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the cake.
