Ingredients

  • 1 ounce gin

  • 1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice

  • 1/2 ounce simple syrup

  • 3 ounces chilled Champagne or dry sparkling wine

Directions

  1. Place a tall, slender glass (like a Champagne flute or Collins glass) in the freezer, or fill it with ice water while you prepare the drink.
  2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup.
  3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until the mixture is well-chilled (about 15 seconds).
  4. Discard the chilling ice from the flute. Double strain the shaken mixture into the chilled glass.
  5. Slowly top the cocktail with the chilled Champagne or sparkling wine.
  6. Express the oils from the lemon twist over the drink and place it in the glass.
