    Bubbly Cocktails

    From a classic champagne cocktail, to a French 75, to your own favorite combination, these easy bubbly cocktails are fun to make, and even more fun to sip. 

    Start with a chilled bottle of your favorite semi-dry or dry champagne/sparkling wine. 

    In a champagne flute, place: 

    For a classic champagne cocktail:
    1 sugar cube (or ½ teaspoon sugar) 
    4 dashes aromatic bitters

    OR

    For a French 75:
    0.5 oz fresh lemon juice
    0.5 oz simple syrup
    1 oz gin

    1 oz raspberry liqueur
    4 dashes chocolate bitters

    OR

    1 oz apple cider (see tips)
    0.5 oz caramel vodka
    3 dashes Orleans bitters

    0.5 oz simple syrup
    1 oz gin
    4 dashes orange bitters

    OR

    0.5 oz fresh lemon juice
    0.5 oz elderflower liqueur

    Top your glass with your favorite sparkling wine or Champagne. 

    Enjoy!

    Tips on Bubbly Cocktails

    • These recipes are specifically made to go with dry or semi-dry champagne/sparkling wine. If you make these with moscato, they will be extremely sweet.
    • Use fresh lemon juice in the cocktails that call for it.
    • Swap apple juice for the cider in the caramel apple cocktail if it’s not cider season or you just can't find it. 
    • Make it a Blueberry French 75 by using blueberry gin with fresh lemon juice and simple syrup. I love New Holland Sprits' Blueberry Knickerbocker Gin.
    • Ice cubes don't belong in these cocktails, so chill as many ingredients as possible - syrups, juices, and especially the bubbly - before serving.
