French 75

2014-08-27

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Gin
  • ½ oz Fresh Lemon Juice
  • ½ oz Simple Syrup
  • 5 oz chilled Champagne

  • Shake the Gin, Lemon Juice, and Simple Syrup with ice in a Cocktail Shaker. Strain into a Champagne Flute and top with Champagne.

  • Garnish with a Lemon Skin or Thread.

Named after the devastating 75mm (Model 1897) French artillery field cannon (used in WWI), this cocktail provides quite the wallop! Though principally champagne, this is no wedding drink! This potent cocktail will certainly get your ears ringing, head spinning, and chest thumping, just as if you were firing one of these cannons. Delicious and complex, this cocktail can be brutal… Have too many, and you’ll feel like you’ve been on the receiving end of this gun’s giant shells! Cheers!
