Method

Cocktail Base

Juice and Measure

Juice fresh lemons and measure 0.5 oz (approx. 15 ml) of strained lemon juice. Measure 1 oz gin and 0.5 oz agave syrup.

Add the gin, fresh lemon juice, and agave syrup into a cocktail shaker filled about two-thirds with ice.

Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold and slightly frosted. This chills and dilutes the mixture properly.

Double-strain the shaken contents into a chilled champagne flute (use a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer or pour through a fine sieve) to remove small ice shards and any pulp.

Champagne Flute / Garnish

Top the strained cocktail with 3 oz chilled champagne or sparkling wine. Pour gently to preserve bubbles.

Express the oils of a lemon twist over the drink by holding the twist over the flute and pinching to release the oils, then drop the twist into the glass or perch it on the rim.

Serve immediately while the champagne is effervescent.
