A petite twist on the classic French 75 – A lovely combination of gin, elderflower and bubbles.
Elderflower Liqueur is not only sweet and floral but also incredibly delicious. Whether mixed with champagne or club soda, it brings a delightful floral touch, or simply enjoy it chilled on its own.
To craft a truly memorable cocktail, we recommend using Empress gin. Its citrus and floral notes will complement the elderflower liqueur and its purple colour will make your French 77 stand out!
Add a final touch of sparkle to your cocktail with our choice of Prosecco. This Italian sparkling wine is a little sweeter than champagne, with fruity and flowery notes that pair perfectly with the liqueur.
Sparking water works just as well, or opt for champagne if you’re feeling extra fancy.
