Ingredients
- 1 oz gin
- ½ oz lemon juice
- splash simple syrup up to 1/2 ounce
- 3 oz champagne
- lemon twist for garnish
Instructions
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Fill with ice. Cover and shake vigorously until the outside is frosty about 15 seconds. Strain into a champagne flute. Top with champagne and serve with a lemon twist.
Notes
- Make the lemon twist before juicing. It is much easier to make the lemon twist before you juice the inside of the lemon! Use a knife, vegetable peeler, or channel zester to cut the outer edge of the lemon peel away from the fruit. Try to get as little pith, or the bitter inner white part of the peel, with the zest as possible for the best flavor.
- Add ice to the shaker, never the glass. Only use ice when you shake the cocktail in the cocktail shaker (or use a mason jar with a lid). Then strain the chilled liquid into the glass. Pouring the French 75 ingredients over ice can dilute the gin and champagne, making it less bubbly and flavorful.
- Serve in a tall cocktail glass. A champagne flute is the best vessel to serve this French 75 recipe in. The slender frame allows the delicate bubbles room to breathe, making it delightfully fizzy. Alternatively, you can use any tall and slender cocktail glass.
