METHOD
combine all ingredients except milk / stir and pour over milk / let sit for at least 30 minutes (I did an hour) until milk curdles / slowly pour mixture into funnel with coffee filter or paper towel / first drops will be cloudy, so swap out container when drops are clear / pass through cloudy portion until all is clear / store in sealed bottle / to serve, pour over clear ice / float red wine

ABOUT
This cocktail is by the brilliant Ivy Mix, who created it at her bar Leyenda (Brooklyn, NY). Her inspiration for this cocktail was the New York Sour, but she wanted to put her own twist on it. I then decided to clarify it! Cheers y’all!
