Still Life With A "Basket of Fruit" Fizz

Still Life With A "Basket of Fruit" Fizz

This cocktail is not just a drink; it’s a homage to Caravaggio’s "Basket of Fruit”. Each sip is like a brushstroke, lending the rich, dark sweetness of figs with the tartness of pomegranate, all grounded by Wheyskey’s warmth. The egg white adds a smooth, painterly texture, reminiscent of the way light plays across Caravaggio’s fruits. 

‍

2 oz Wheyward Wheyskey 

¾ oz Fig Syrup (from Liber & Co.)

¼ oz Grenadine

½ oz Lemon Juice

1 dash Angostura Bitters

1 Egg White

2 oz. Ginger Beer (from Fever-Tree)

‍

Combine Wheyskey, Fig Syrup, grenadine, egg white, and Angostura bitters in a shaker. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously to emulsify the egg white. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. Double Strain into a highball glass. Tap the glass twice and wait for 15 seconds to allow the foam to settle. Gently top it off with ginger beer to create a beautiful layered effect. Garnish with three drops of Angostura bitters.
