French 75

THE CLASSIC

Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 5 min
Glass: Champagne flute
Garnish: Lemon twist

INGREDIENTS

  • 30 ml Gin
  • 15 ml Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 15 ml Simple Syrup
  • 60 ml Champagne
  • Lemon twist
  • Ice

METHOD

  1. Add the gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup to a shaker with ice.
  2. Shake until well chilled.
  3. Strain into a Champagne flute.

SWANKY TIP

Chill the glass before serving and pour the Champagne slowly to keep the bubbles lively. A dry sparkling wine works best so the drink stays crisp rather than overly sweet.
