In case you’re not familiar, a French 75 is a Champagne ،tail made with gin or cognac, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Ever had a Tom Collins? It’s like that, but topped with Champagne instead of club soda. T،ugh the exact origins of the French 75 are unclear, it likely originated in France during World War I. It takes its name from French 75-millimeter field guns, which were used widely during the war.

French 75 Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this cl،ic ،tail:

  • Gin – We like Hendrick’s gin, which has delicious notes of cu،ber and rose. Another good option is St. George Botanivore Gin, which is fresh and herbaceous. Koval Dry Gin (made locally in Chicago!) is great too.
  • Lemon juice – Freshly squeezed, please! It tastes so much brighter than the kind from the bottle. Bonus: you can use some of the lemon ،l for garni،
  • Simple syrup – For sweetness. Homemade simple syrup is easy to make in 5 minutes with equal parts sugar and water.
  • Champagne – There’s no need to go all-out on a very expensive bottle for this recipe. That said, decent Champagne will taste better than the really cheap stuff. Look for brut Champagne, which is not too dry and not too sweet. Be sure to chill it before making these ،tails!
