Harding - BlackBerry Mock Mojito
Even
in a flavored mojito using rum, the difference between a great mojito
and less than great lies in the fresh ingredients and preparation.
The flavor of fresh mint infusing with the other ingredients is what
enables this mock mojito to stand its ground even without the
rum.
We’re going to use blackberries in our mojito but I’ve
made them with blueberries, raspberries as well as peaches. I like
blackberries because of the color as well as it’s perfect with the
lime and mint.
Ingredients:
Fresh blackberries
A
lime
Fresh mint
Fine sugar
Minute Maid limeade
Club
soda
Ice
Lemon rimming sugar
Start by taking a cocktail
muddler and pummel two fresh mint leaves with two table spoons of
fine sugar. Use a microplaner to zest about 1 teaspoon of lime peel
into the ground sugar. Pummel enough just to infuse it into your
sugar/mint mixture. The mint should just be showing up as green
specks in the sugar. Squeeze the lime juice from half the lime that
you zested and add a few blackberries to the mix and muddle them just
enough to break them up. Don’t over mash them.
Fill a
colander 1/3 full of ice. Fill to 3/4 full with lime aid. Add a spoon
full of the muddled mix and shake well.
Use the other half of
the lime to wet the edge of a tall glass and rim the glass with the
lemon rimming sugar. Fill the glass half full of ice. Fill glass to
2/3 full with the colander lime aid mix. Top glass off with club
soda. Give it a light swirl with a straw. Garnish with 3 mint leaves,
a couple black berries and a lime wedge.
The you should have
enough in your cocktail muddler to make 3 or 4 Blackberry Mock
Mojitos.

Martinez - Caramel Apple Cider Bomb Recipe
INGREDIENTS:
For
the chocolate Shell:
60 grams White coating chocolate such as
almond bark
⅛ tbsp Caramel candy flavoring
Dash of
Cinnamon
For the Cider filling:
3 Tbsp of powdered Apple
cider mix
½ cinnamon stick
Dash of Edible Gold Shimmer
dust
TO MAKE:
Mix together the caramel flavoring with the
melted white chocolate then fill the half sphere mold with melted
white chocolate, turn it upside down and let the chocolate set in the
fridge until hard, repeat for 2 layers. Once hard, remove the
chocolate carefully. Form two hollow half spheres.
Mix
together the cider filling so there are no clumps and place into one
half of the sphere along with the cinnamon stick.
Carefully
melt the edges of one half sphere on a warm pan. Place it against the
filled side, lining up the edges to seal the contents inside, forming
a complete sphere. Finish it off with drizzled chocolate, sprinkles,
and/or sanding sugar.
TO USE:
Gently place the Cider Bomb
in a clear glass mug. Pour 10 OZ of HOT water slowly over the cider
bomb to watch it melt and open. Stir and allow the drink to sit for a
minute to let the flavors develop and enjoy!
