French 75 Champagne Cocktail for New Years Eve

champers
This French 75 recipe is the damn champagne cocktail that took me out on New Years Eve. (I didn’t even get a chance to try any other of my favorite cocktails!) Proceed with caution! I do love me the bubbles of champagne, but I will warn you – this drink packs a hell of a punch. Two of these will have even the most staunch drinker feeling bubbly, and for you out there with the low tolerance, well, let’s just say two would probably be your limit. If you overdo it, here are a few tried-and-true hangover cures.

I can tell you from personal experience that French 75 champagne cocktails do not mix very well with swing sets in the middle of the night. That’s all I’ll share about that little story. Ahem.

Enjoy this cocktail on New Years Eve, and I hope that your evening is safe and so much fun. And I hope you remember all of it!
