Kir Royale
Author: Nicole
Ingredients
  • ½ ounce crème de cassis
  • 4 to 5 ounces brut or extra dry Champagne (or other dry sparkling wine)
  • Garnish: lemon twist
Instructions
  1. Pour the creme de cassis into a Champagne flute.
  2. Top with Champagne or sparkling wine. If you’d like it a bit more sweet, add a bit more crème de cassis. Stir, if needed. (The bubbles from the Champagne or sparkling wine should be enough to mix the two ingredients.)
  3. Garnish with a lemon twist.
Notes
* Since the crème de cassis is sweet, I do not recommend using a sweet Champagne or sparkling wine for this cocktail.
