Blue Bloom Martini
(Centaurea cyanus)
Bright blue, peppery, and basically edible confetti. These petals are mild in flavour but mighty in looks. Use them like you use parsley—but prettier.
Ingredients:
- 50ml gin
- 20ml dry vermouth
- 1 tsp Cornflower syrup (make like chamomile syrup)
- Ice
- Petals for garnish
Method:
- Shake gin, vermouth, and syrup with ice.
- Strain into a chilled martini glass.
- Float Cornflower petals on top like a botanical Bond villain.
Serving Tip: Two of these are enough... Trust me
