Black Velvet is a classic cocktail that combines the elegance of champagne with the boldness of stout. Originating in mid-19th century England, this drink was created to mourn the passing of Prince Albert, as it represented the black armbands worn in mourning, and the luxurious velvet material of his coffin. The champagne adds a light, effervescent quality, while the stout brings a rich, dark earthiness. The resulting combination is a smooth and balanced drink that is both refreshing and hearty. The contrast between the two ingredients makes for a unique and complex flavour profile, making it a perfect choice for a special occasion or a cozy night in. The simple yet striking appearance of the black and gold layers adds to the allure of this classic cocktail, making it a staple in bars and homes around the world.
