Kir Royale
Kir Royale is an easy French champagne drink made with black currant crème de cassis liqueur. Perfect for brunch and celebrations!
Ingredients
- crème de cassis liqueur (see notes for recipe variations)
- 1 champagne or other dry sparkling white wine, or crémant de Bourgogne
- lemon peel or blackberries, raspberries, lemon twists, or currants (for garnish, twists
Instructions
- Pour 1 teaspoon of crème de cassis in each glass.
- Top with champagne, garnish as desired, and serve!
Notes
- RECIPE VARIATIONS: While a Kir Royale is traditionally made with creme de cassis, you can also make a black raspberry Kir Royal by swapping for an equal amount of Chambord. Pomegranate liqueur is another fun twist on the classic recipe too.
- Unfortunately, there is not a non-alcholic Kir royale I am aware of. For a low alcohol version, top the creme de cassis with a non-alcoholic sparkling wine.
