The Champs-Élysées is a classic cocktail that’s very tasty and very underrated! It’s a riff on one of my favorite cocktails, the Sidecar, that keeps cognac as the base spirit, but uses Green Chartreuse instead of triple sec giving it more complexity in taste. It was created in the 1920’s, and because of the drink’s use of French spirits, it’s named after the famous avenue in Paris. While sipping on this cocktail, you may even feel transported to a cafe on the streets of Paris!😉 So give this classic a try and watch Green Chartreuse become one of your new favorite liqueurs!🍸🇫🇷🎉 Champs-Élysées🍸🇫🇷 2oz Cognac 1/2oz Green Chartreuse 3/4oz Lemon Juice 1/2oz Simple Syrup 2 dashes Angostura Bitters Add your ingredients to a shaker with ice.

Do you like Gin and Juice as much as Snoop Dogg?🤔 Try this drink before you answer!🍸 The Orange Blossom is a tasty cocktail created in the 1920’s during Prohibition. Like a lot of cocktails from this time, it contained ingredients that could cover the chemical taste in bathtub gin!🫣 Thankfully this cocktail tasted even better with high quality gin and needs to be tried!🙌 The original recipe calls for equal parts of the ingredients but this gave an unbalanced sweetness, so I increased the gin to 2oz which tasted perfect! So try this “Gin & Juice with a kick” and see what you think!🍸🍊🎉 Orange Blossom🍸🍊 2oz Gin 1oz Sweet Vermouth 1oz Orange Juice Add your ingredients to a shaker with ice. Shake until well chilled and double strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with an orange wedge. Enjoy!!
