The French 75 cocktail has a rich history dating back to World War I, named after the powerful French 75mm field gun. This classic cocktail traditionally combines gin, champagne, lemon juice, and sugar. However, a modern twist on this iconic drink involves adding a splash of elderflower liqueur, imparting a delicate floral sweetness. Renowned mixologists and bartenders across Paris, New Orleans, and London have put their own spin on this timeless libation, infusing it with the fragrant essence of elderflower. For a truly exceptional French 75 with elderflower liqueur, visit upscale cocktail bars or speakeasies known for their innovative and expertly crafted drinks.
