« Flautas | Recipes | Guacamole »

french 75

  • 1.5 oz gin
  • .75 oz lemon juice
  • .5 oz simple syrup

the above need to be shaken on ice for proper chill and dilution

strain into glass (some people use flutes to hold the carbonation, i like coupes, better for smelling and you’re drinking it pretty quickly anyway)

top with champagne

express the oils from a good sized lemon peel over top and place in glass

here is a good variation we had on the menu at one of my previous places of employment:

the howitzer

  • 1 oz overproof bourbon (e.h. taylor)
  • .5 oz lemon juice
  • .5 oz simple syrup
  • 1 dash fee brothers peach bitters

shake above for chill and dilution

strain into glass

top with champagne

express and place lemon peel
