Independent Journalism in Dallas Needs You
We need to raise $12,500 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Hotel bars are becoming a thing again – just look at Midnight Rambler at the Joule and Knife in the Highland. SER at the Hilton Anatole is quickly becoming a hotel bar to watch. Bartender Colin Silva may be behind the stick, but he’s not behind on cocktail trends. He’s working to include molecular twists on cocktails to include things like Aperol pearls and shots of tequila resembling an egg yolk in his drinks.
His new cocktail No Shadow brings together the sweetness of Chambord with the smokiness of a peaty scotch. You can try your hand at his cocktail at home, but it’s worth the 27-floor elevator ride so you don’t have to make Chambord foam at home.

1 1/2 oz. Laphroaig
3/4 oz. fresh-squeezed lemon
1/2 oz simple syrup
1/4 oz Chambord
2 barspoons Chambord foam
