Cocktail

4 oz Davis Bynum Brut or other quality sparkling wine1 oz Gin (London dry)1/2 oz Fresh lemon juice1/2 oz Honey simple syrup (1:1 honey to water)1/4 oz Orange liqueur (Cointreau or triple sec)2 dashes Angostura or orange bitters1 cup Ice1 to taste Lemon twist (garnish)

Method

Cocktail

Chill glass

Place a flute or coupe in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail (about 5 minutes).

Combine base ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, add the gin, fresh lemon juice, honey simple syrup, orange liqueur and bitters. Add a handful of ice (about 3/4 cup) to the shaker.

Shake

Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and the mixture is well-chilled and slightly diluted.

Strain

Discard the ice/water from the chilled glass. Fine-strain the shaken mixture into the chilled flute or coupe, filling it about one-third to one-half full (roughly 1.5–2 oz).

Top with sparkling wine

Carefully top the strained mixture with 4 oz (about 1/2 cup) of chilled Davis Bynum Brut (or other quality sparkling wine). Pour slowly down the side of the glass to preserve bubbles.

Garnish and serve

Express a lemon twist over the top of the drink (pinch the peel to release oils), run it around the rim, then drop it into the glass. Serve immediately.
