Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients: Empress Gin, fresh lemon, simple syrup, and champagne. Squeeze the lemon to extract fresh juice.

  2. 2

    Make the Simple Syrup

    If you don't have simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and let it cool.

Mixing the Cocktail

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add 2 oz of Empress Gin, 1 oz of freshly squeezed lemon juice, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup.

  2. 4

    Shake the Mixture

    Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

  3. 5

    Strain into Glass

    Strain the mixture into a chilled champagne flute, filling it about halfway.

  4. 6

    Top with Champagne

    Carefully top the flute with 3 oz of champagne, pouring slowly to maintain the bubbles.

  5. 7

    Garnish

    Twist a piece of lemon peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it into the glass as a garnish.
