Help recreating “Stepping Out in Style” from Patent Pending
I got this in September 2024 at Patent Pending in NYC and I still think about how good it was. I’ve included the only pictures I got of the drink and ingredient list.
Any advice on how to make the tomato brine and clarified cucumber juice would be appreciated, as well as suggested cocktail ingredient proportions.
From my research, it seems like the tomato brine might be halved tomatoes with 2% salt by weight and then strained. The cucumber juice might be made with agar freeze-thaw clarification with added citric/malic acid, but I’m not sure.
The bartender didn’t mix or assemble anything to make the cocktail. He simple pulled a two liter bottle out of the fridge and poured it over the ice cube. It was already combined and carbonated in the bottle beforehand.
