Wanted a drier version, so left out the sugar and put the lemon peel in a shaker with the other ingredients. Beautiful.

Agreed with the others. When my flute was almost empty, I run to the kitchen to fill it up, very nice cocktail 😊

Just had this as our Xmas cocktail. Highly recommended. Everyone is tipsy.

Very nice champaign cocktail. Good balance, but I felt the orange flavour. May try with one dash of angostura and one of orange bitters.
