Garnish:
Seasonal berries
How to make:
STIR first 3 ingredients with ice and strain into chilled glass. TOP with champagne.
1 2/3 fl oz | Cognac (brandy) |
1/3 fl oz | Bénédictine D.O.M. liqueur |
1/4 fl oz | Luxardo Maraschino liqueur |
1 1/2 fl oz | Brut champagne or sparkling wine |
Review:
Bénédictine adds both saffron flavour and vivid yellow colour to this cognac based cocktail with maraschino contributing fruity notes. Champagne dries and provides effervescence and body to this well-balanced cocktail.
History:
Adapted from a recipe discovered in 2014 at Hawksmoor Spitalfields in London, England. In turn, this apparently comes from a punch served at New York's Waldorf-Astoria in the 1930s.
