Summer Cocktail Month: June 2, 2013

The French 75 - A refreshing cocktail with a champagne splash!

1 1/2 oz gin 
3/4 oz lemon juice 
1 T simple syrup 
2 oz dry sparkling wine
Optional: St. Germaine
lemon peel garnish

Shake ingredients over ice and strain into large champagne glass. Top with sparkling wine (optional - float some St. Germaine). Garnish with a spiraled lemon peel! The St. Germaine adds a floral taste that improves the flavor of this drink. An excellent brunch libation!
