milk washed India tea

Milk washed India tea

What you will need:

Jar, cocktail mixing glass, spoons, fine weave cheese cloth (worked best for me) or several coffee filters, jigger for measuring, glass for cocktail, fruit vegetable peeler, lemons for the twist, one medium blood orange and two small medium limes, Brother’s Bond Bourbon, Sukhi’s mango curry chutney, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, ice, a couple of small bucket glasses, several medium and large sized rubber bands

Cocktail Ingredients:

10 ounces Brother’s Bond Indian Bourbon (7 ounces for the milk citrus juice and 3 ounces for after clarification)

9 Ounces of goat milk

3 Ounces of fresh citrus juice (this recipe 1 medium blood orange and 2 small limes) with pulp strained out

3 Tablespoons of Citric Acid powder

1/2 Ounce of Vanilla Extract (easy recipe to make it here)

1/2 Ounce Sukki’s Mango Chutney

Coconut sugar for the syrup to taste

For the Milk Wash:

In a mixing glass add 7 ounces of Brother’s Bond Bourbon and the room temperature juice of one medium blood orange and two small limes. Then slowly pour in 9 ounces of goat milk. Whisk with a whisk or fork as you pour. Once milk bourbon mixture combined, cover, label, and refrigerate for 3-24 hours. Once a visible separation, start the filtering. A few passes for me. The coffee filter broke the first time. I switched to cheese cloth for the next pass. Once again I filter as there were still some particles present after the second pass. The liquid should be crystal clear.

My first coffee filter broke and I had to start again. I tried another coffee filter and ripped the second coffee filter and decided to switch to fine weave cheese cloth. Leave the mixture alone and let it drip as slow as it needs to drip. Patience.
Pass bourbon milk mixture as many times as you need to in order to produce a crystal clear liquid. Three or four times worked for me.

After clarification, add 3 ounces of the remainder bourbon 3 Tablespoons of Citric Acid and 1/2 Ounce of Vanilla Extract. Give the mixture a good stir. Cover, date, and refrigerate until ready to use.

For the Mango Curry Syrup

4 heaping Tablespoons of Mango Curry Chutney

2 Ounce of Still Water

In a bucket glass, mix chutney and water. In a second bucket glass fasten a cheese cloth or coffee filter with rubber band. Pass the chunky chutney liquid through the filter to remove larger pieces of fruit. Store your new mango curries syrup the refrigerator until ready to make the cocktail(s).

For the Coconut Sugar

1/2 Cup of Coconut Sugar

1/2 Cup of Water

Combine equal parts water and coconut sugar in saucepan over medium heat. Cook until sugar is dissolved. Occasionally stirring. Once dissolved remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Once cool, store in refrigerator until ready to use for your cocktail.

For milk washed India iced tea

2 Ounces of Clarified Bourbon

1/ 2 Ounce of Mango Curries Syrup

2-3 Bar Spoonfuls of Coconut Sugar Syrup (if you like it sweeter add more to taste similar to a regular iced tea)

In a bucket glass add a large ice cube or several cubes and set aside. Ice choice, a personal preference. Pour all measured all ingredients into a mixing glass. Add ice and mix about ten stirs of the spoon. This is a stirred not shaken situation. Pour into bucket glass over large ice cube. Express the lemon and toss into glass.

Glass: bucket glass

Garnish: expressed blood orange, orange, or lemon peel. I like the lemon for this one.
