Dried rosebuds

Taras Kirienko, chef of the Touché wine bar, shared the recipe with us.

The 'Feijoa Champagne' cocktail is an exquisite blend of vibrant feijoa flavor, citrus notes, and the sparkling freshness of champagne. This drink is a true symbol of sophistication and originality. Feijoa, crushed with sugar and lemon juice, adds a tropical sweetness that harmonizes beautifully with gin and orange liqueur. The dry white sparkling wine completes the composition with light airy bubbles. Adorned with a rose bud, this cocktail transforms into a work of art, perfect for a romantic evening or a festive event. Each sip reveals a wealth of flavors, creating an unforgettable impression. This cocktail is not just a drink but a true gastronomic delight that offers moments of sensual elegance.

Rose jelly is an exquisite and fragrant dessert filled with delicate floral notes. This recipe comes from European cuisine, where the refinement of taste and aesthetics are valued. Rose petals are infused with apple juice and white wine, revealing their gentle bouquet further refreshed by lemon juice. Gelling sugar creates a velvety texture, while the added petals make it not only tasty but also visually captivating. This jelly pairs perfectly with morning tea, pastries or light desserts. It can be served as a festive treat or enjoyed in solitude while immersing oneself in an atmosphere of elegance and romance. The taste is subtle with floral and fruity undertones, slightly tart due to the wine yet gentle overall. It's an ideal choice for those seeking refined pleasure.
