Orphan Black cocktail #1

[neonvincent]

The theme of Midweek Cafe and Lounge, Vol. 74 this week is music from "Orphan Black," so my contribution was to post Orphan Black Cosima's Hypothosis [sic] Cocktail.

Watch on YouTube

In creating this cocktail I wanted to show how Cosima was able to hypothesize that Delphine was in fact her monitor leading to the truth. To symbolize her vast intellect I chose to add Elderflower Liqueur. The fact alone that Delphine was the one who betrayed her in addition to being her girlfriend I chose to use Passion Fruit Syrup for the betrayal of a love. Overall the flavor profile offers a balance of herbal and tart notes with a slight hint of citrus in the finish with a mild potency making this cocktail very enjoyable.
Recipe:
1 oz. Elderflower Liqueur
2 oz. Vodka
½ oz. Passion Fruit Syrup
Top with Sprite
Preparation:
Add the Elderflower Liqueur, Vodka and Passion Fruit Syrup to a mixing glass with ice and stir well. Strain into a lowball glass over ice and top with the Sprite and serve.

I will post another recipe there today, which I'll share here tomorrow.

Or just serve a bottle of wine. Preferably stolen from Leekie.
