Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
Place a coupe or champagne flute in the freezer for 5–10 minutes, or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill.
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 1.5 oz Bombay Sapphire gin, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup, and a handful of ice (about 1 cup).
Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10–12 seconds, until the exterior of the shaker feels cold and slightly frosted.
Strain
Discard ice or water from the chilled glass. Double-strain the shaken mixture (using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer if available) into the chilled coupe or flute, filling it about halfway.
Top with sparkling wine
Carefully top the cocktail with approximately 3 oz Brut sparkling wine. Pour slowly down the side of the glass to preserve bubbles and avoid excessive foam.
