Cocktail Cruise!

My college roommate and her husband visited us this weekend and we went out on a cocktail cruise on Saturday night. She suggested that we make French 75s to take along with us. We also brought some of the cheaty crostini, prosciutto, and cheese.

Yes, my husband is wearing a Hawaiian shirt with a
Rick Flair print on it.

We made a pitcher’s worth of them. Here are the proportions from Sarah:

French 75

10 oz gin (we used Hendrick’s)

5 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice

5 oz simple syrup

Shake with ice and strain into a flute or coupe glass to about 1/3 of the glass and top with champagne or prosecco–we used La Marca.

It was a gorgeous night.
