Ingredients
Ice
1 ½
ounces
London dry gin, such as Tanqueray or Beefeaters
½
ounce
lemon juice
½
ounce
maraschino cherry syrup/juice
3
ounces
prosecco, chilled
Maraschino cherry, for garnish
Lemon twist, for garnish
Instructions
Add gin, lemon juice, and cherry syrup to a cocktail shaker filled with ice; shake vigorously for 15 seconds.
Strain into a fluted cocktail glass and top with prosecco. Garnish with a maraschino cherry and lemon rind twist.
Notes
If you prefer a sweeter drink and deeper maraschino cherry taste, increase the cherry syrup to 1 ounce.
Use less gin and more champagne for a drink that has less alcohol.
Try a "French 76" using
vodka
instead of gin. Omit the cherry juice and use simple syrup instead. Garnish with one maraschino cherry.
