French 75

French 75 cocktail recipe

Different drinks transport us to other times and places. The French 75 is a bubbling glass of nostalgia. It is to be held in the hand of a silver screen starlet and toasted as fireworks explode in the background. While I forgo garnish on most of my cocktails, the French 75 almost begs for it. And, best of all: it is so easy to make. Heck, if you are willing to prepare it ahead of time and keep it chilled, you don't even need the ice cubes (which is a plus for nomads such as us where ice cubes are in rare supply.) Mix up your evening with this cocktail classic.
