Drinks »French 75

meghan ledare french 75Champagne is a particular weakness of mine so it's little surprise my cocktail of choice should be the most ambrosial of champagne concoctions, the French 75.

Named for the field gun issued Americans upon their arrival in France during WWI, legend has that it's shell casings were used as vessels to imbibe in the medley of canteen cognac and the French champagnes abundant around them.

I prefer to enjoy mine at Bemelmans Bar, my “breakfast at tiffanys” if you will.?Though I'm sure they are just as fine in any bucolic, war torn pasture.
