CLASSIC CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL WITH A CITRUS TWIST



Classic Champagne Cocktail With A Citrus Twist image

New Years Eve is tomorrow, which means it's time to pop the cork and treat ourselves to one of the most festive cocktails around: the Champagne cocktail. Champagne is among my favorite things to indulge in during the holidays, and while I can definitely enjoy it on its own, I really love it when it's used as the base of a cocktail. The traditional Champagne cocktail is pretty basic, so I decided to give it a twist by adding a bit of citrus. The reason I chose to add citrus to this beautiful classic is because it pairs perfectly with the effervescent qualities of the champagne. The classic Champagne cocktail consists of a sugar cube doused in angostura bitters and topped with Champagne, so by substituting citrus bitters along with fresh citrus, the cocktail becomes even more celebratory than the original.

When selecting the Champagne for this cocktail, we wanted something moderately dry but with a hint of sweetness. Demi-sec (a French term meaning "half dry") Champagnes and sparkling wines provide the perfect balance.

6 oz demi-sec Champagne or sparkling wine, chilled
Garnish: thin slices of kumquat

Steps:

  • Pour liqueur into a Champagne flute and swirl around to coat inside of glass. Top off with Champagne.

31 BEST CITRUS COCKTAIL RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS

From thespruceeats.com
  • Ward Eight Cocktail. A legend in the cocktail world, the Ward Eight is an enhanced whiskey sour. Choose bourbon or rye whiskey, then add equal pours of orange and lemon juices and just a dash of grenadine for sweetness to recreate this 19th-century drink.
  • Buck's Fizz. A fantastic brunch cocktail dating to the 1920s, the Buck's fizz is possibly the predecessor to the mimosa. The only things you need to pull off this drink are orange juice and Champagne (or sparkling wine like Cava), though an orange twist adds an elegant touch.
  • The Last Word Cocktail. The last word cocktail is often an overlooked drink, but this variation on the gimlet deserves a taste. In it, the combo of gin and lime is enhanced with Green Chartreuse and maraschino liqueur.
  • Blood and Sand Cocktail. For scotch drinkers, there is the blood and sand cocktail. Best described as a scotch Manhattan with cherry brandy and orange juice, the four ingredients are poured equally (so it's easy to remember) for a well-balanced cocktail that will impress anyone.
  • Pisco Sour. Key lime juice is not called for often in cocktails, though it does make the pisco sour far more enjoyable than the standard lime. To offset that intense citrus flavor, a touch of simple syrup sweetens the mix while an egg white gives the drink a luscious texture.
