kir royale cocktail recipe

Ingredients

  • ½ ounce (1 tablespoon) Chambord or crème de cassis
  • 5 ounces chilled brut (dry) Champagne
  • Optional garnish: 1 fresh raspberry

Instructions

  1. Pour the Chambord into a Champagne flute. While holding the glass at a 45-degree angle (this helps preserve the bubbles), gently pour in the Champagne.
  2. Garnish with a raspberry, if you’d like. Serve immediately.

Notes

*How to scale this recipe: One bottle of Champage will yield about 5 drinks. One small (375 mL) bottle of Chambord is enough for 25 drinks. So, you’ll need five times as much Champagne as Chambord.
