Got a funny feeling? Order the Clown Punch for two at Culinary Dropout. But beware, home bartenders: It’s not child’s play to make.

In a large goblet over ice cubes, pour 1 ½ ounces white peach purée, 2 ounces freshly squeezed lemon juice, 3 ounces freshly squeezed orange juice, 1 ½ ounces St. Germain elderflower liqueur and 2 ½ ounces dry gin. Stir and top with pomegranate foam, which is another act altogether.

That’s made by combining 8 ounces egg whites, 4 ounces triple sec, 4 ounces grenadine and 4 ounces orange juice in an iSi canister (available at Sur la Table or Williams-Sonoma). Attach the top of the canister and charge it twice, using two carbon dioxide cartridges. Shake vigorously and test in a separate glass to avoid splashing any of the drink out of the glass.

Silly name, serious drink.

$16 (for two)
