A traditional French 75 calls for fresh lemon juice and sugar; two of the primary ingredients in our lemonade mix. The whole rosehips and hibiscus flowers add a whole other layer while complementing the sparkling wine wonderfully.
Prior to the 1980s/90s, the French 75 cocktail was a long drink, served in an ice-filled Collins glass. This modern flute serve has become the usual serve with the Collins version now all but forgotten – Difford’s Guide
