I learned this French 75 recipe from Cure Bar, and now it's my favorite!

gin

🥗Healthier: vodka

💰Cheaper: well gin

Vodka provides a neutral flavor while being less expensive.

champagne

🥗Healthier: sparkling wine

💰Cheaper: prosecco

Sparkling wine offers similar bubbles at a lower price.

simple syrup

🥗Healthier: agave syrup

💰Cheaper: honey

Honey is a natural sweetener and often less expensive.

Start by preparing your ingredients: half an ounce of lemon juice and half an ounce of simple syrup.

Add the lemon juice and simple syrup to a cocktail shaker.

Pour in the barrel strength gin.

Add a quarter of an ounce of celery bitters to the shaker.

Shake the mixture well to combine.

Prepare a cocktail glass by chilling it or using a cool glass.

Pour a little champagne or prosecco into the glass before adding the cocktail mixture.

Strain the cocktail mixture into the glass on top of the champagne.

Top off the drink with more champagne or prosecco as desired.

Garnish with a lemon twist, creating a pigtail twist for presentation.
