1pt Midnight 75 Recipe

1pt Midnight 75
This cocktail is pure midnight magic, with a vibrant infusion of bright botanicals and a whisper of spice that’s both refreshing and quietly seductive. Each sip reveals a layered complexity, like a secret meant to be shared over laughter and a late-night toast. Effortlessly batchable, it brings a polished elegance to any gathering without the fuss. For those who prefer a non-alcoholic option, a zero-proof spirit keeps the spirit alive, offering all the sophistication without the buzz.

STEP 1 - Easy All-Natural Infusion

Infuse Your Spirit:
Combine a 1pt Mulled White Infusion Blend Packet with 375ml of gin in any lidded container. Let it infuse for 2-3 hours, then strain, and reserve the infused spirit for your cocktails. (No need to refrigerate - infused spirits can be stored indefinitely at room temperature)

1pt Mulled White Infusion Blend Ingredients:
Lemon Verbena, Cardamom, Apple, Ginger, Pink Peppercorn - no sugar, gluten, dairy, nuts, additives, or preservatives

Mocktail* Version:
Substitute water or a zero-proof spirit/wine for the alcohol in this infusion and follow the same steps. (Non-alcoholic infusions should be refrigerated and used within 30 days)

STEP 2 - Mix Your Drink

Mixing Instructions:
Combine all ingredients (except sparkling wine) in a shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Strain into a champagne flute and top with sparkling wine. For batching, do not shake. Instead, combine all ingredients (except sparkling wine) in a pitcher with ice and stir to combine. Top each glass with sparkling wine before serving.

Garnish:
A red currant cocktail stick and a seasonal sprig of delicate flowers

STEP 3 - Enjoy!

For an Added Twist:
Add a slice of fresh pear for a hint of sweetness and an elegant touch.
