    Ingredients

    • 1.5 oz gin

    • 0.75 oz lemon juice

    • 0.5 oz simple syrup

    • 3.0 oz champagne

    • 1.0 twist lemon peel

    • 1.0 cup ice

    Directions

    • Start by chilling your champagne flute in the freezer to ensure the cocktail is perfectly cold when ready to serve.
    • In a cocktail shaker, combine gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup with a generous amount of ice to fill the shaker.
    • Shake the mixture vigorously for about 20 seconds to thoroughly mix the ingredients and chill the cocktail.
    • Strain the mixture into the chilled champagne flute, making sure to leave any ice behind in the shaker.
    • Top off the mixture in the flute with champagne, pouring slowly to maintain the fizziness of the bubbles.
    • Gently stir with a cocktail stirrer to mix the champagne with other ingredients without losing too many bubbles.
    • Garnish with a twist of lemon peel by twisting it over the drink to release citrus oils, then drop it into the drink.
    • Serve immediately and enjoy this classic and refreshing French 75 cocktail.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
