Indigo Sour

Carl Amoth's Bar

Makes 2 cocktails

A color-changing gin sour—butterfly-pea indigo turns violet-pink the moment the lemon hits.

Ingredients

• 4 oz butterfly-pea gin (Empress 1908)
• 1 oz Licor 43
• 1 ½ oz fresh lemon juice
• soda water, to top

Method

1. Shake the gin and Licor 43 over ice; strain over fresh ice in a tall glass.
2. Add the lemon juice last and watch the indigo shift to violet-pink; top with a splash of soda.

Note. A photographer's drink—shoot it mid-pour as the color turns.
