This tasty Halloween cocktail may look a little complicated to make, thanks to the foam top. However, it’s not much of a challenge and the extra texture looks great for Halloween. Spooky!
This recipe was developed for Belvedere IX, which is flavored with a variety of herbs and fruit. You could experiment with this same recipe using your favorite infusion. (Perhaps something DIY from our book!)

Aperol Foam Recipe
Ingredients:
500g 100% Pressed Pomegranate juice
230g Aperol
100g cold water
60g simple syrup (1:1)
6.5 sheets gelatine (200 bloom count)
Simple syrup (combine 200g of white sugar with 200g boiling water. Sitr until sugar is fully dissolved. Cool in fridge.)
Directions:
Soak gelatine sheets in cold water for 5 minutes. In a separate bowl add all remaining ingredients and mix well. Fine strain out any bits of pith as these will clog up the siphon. Heat gelatine and 1/3 of the mix on stovetop but do not boil. Take off heat, combine with remaining mixture. Mix thoroughly. Pour into soda siphon and charge with NO2. Chill in fridge.
