French 75

This cocktail made with Black Fox Gin #3 packs a punch – like being hit by a bullet from a French 75mm.

Ingredients

1 oz Black Fox Gin #3
0.5 oz Fresh-Squeezed Lemon Juice
0.5 oz Simple Syrup
3 oz Chilled Champagne

Directions

To make the simple syrup add equal parts of sugar and water to a saucepan and stir over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.  Let cool completely before adding to the cocktail.
