Method
Preparation
Chill the Glass
Before preparing your Kir Royale, chill a champagne flute by filling it with ice water. Set aside for a few minutes.
Pour Crème de Cassis
Once the glass is chilled, discard the ice water. Pour 30 ml of Crème de cassis into the bottom of the champagne flute.
Add Champagne
Slowly top the Crème de cassis with 120 ml of champagne. Pour gently to avoid excessive fizzing.
Garnish
If desired, add 5 fresh blackcurrants and a lemon twist to the drink for added flavor and presentation.
