French 95
Bourbon
The French 95 is a delightful and elegant cocktail that offers a twist on the classic French 75. By swapping gin for bourbon, the French 95 adds depth and complexity, imparting a richer flavor profile with hints of caramel and oak. Next comes the citrusy brightness of lemon juice, and effervescent champagne rounds out the drink. Once shaken, it's a honeyed delight with bubbly finesse.
