Classic French 75
A toast to all those that inspired me to start the Instagram account and pushed be even further to write about what I love doing most.... Cooking!

There are several variations to this drink but I prefer this one because the proportions are easy to remember which is great for an impromptu cocktail hour!
Ingredients
1/2 oz simple syrup
1/2 oz lemon juice
1 oz gin
3 oz champagne
Directions
Shake first three ingredients with ice in cocktail shaker
Strain and pour into flute or coupe glass
Top with champagne and a lemon twist if possible (a garnish is always good)
