“The "Ichor and Glass" is a contemporary creation born from literary inspiration rather than historical precedent. Named after ichor—the golden fluid that flows in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology—this cocktail was conceived as a liquid interpretation of divine ambrosia. The drink's golden hue comes from the marriage of aged cognac and Yellow Chartreuse, while edible gold flakes provide a literal representation of the mythological ichor. Though fictional in origin, the cocktail draws on classical techniques of balancing spirits, liqueurs, and aromatics in the tradition of pre-prohibition cocktails.”
