easy cocktail recipe

A bright and refreshing St. Germain cocktail made with St. Germain, gin or vodka, fresh lemon, and topped with prosecco or champagne. Easy and perfect for brunch, a special date night in, and parties!

St. Germain Cocktail

dry gin (such as Hendrick's

St. Germain liqueur

lemon juice

brut champagne (or prosecco,

Lemon twist or peel (for serving)

Ice (for cocktail shaker)

Combine the gin or vodka, St. Germain, and lemon juice in a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with ice, cover, and shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker is very cold, about 20 seconds.

Strain into a champagne glass and top with champagne. Garnish with a lemon twist and enjoy! (Pro tip: I like to rub the inside of the lemon peel around the rim of the glass first. It gives the drink an extra burst of citrusy freshness and flavor.)

One of the most iconic sours, the Whisky Sour originated sometime in the late 1800s and remained extremely popular during Prohibition. It is most often made with bourbon, but other whiskeys can be used, and served up or on the rocks, with or without egg white.
