A great summer drink. Sweet and lemony. It's basically a Tom Collins with champagne instead of soda. Be careful though, the amount of booze in here can creep up on you if you have a few.
Ingredients:
1oz (30ml) Gin
1oz (30ml) fresh lemon juice
1/2oz (15ml) 2:1 simple syrup
2oz (60ml) Champagne
Garnish: Lemon peel
Instructions
Shake everything except the champagne over regular ice
Add champagne to the mixing tin
Strain into a glass filled with regular ice
Garnish with a lemon peel
This drink often is served in a champagne flute without ice but more recently the trend is to serve it this way. If you're interested in a little cocktail history check out this great video from Small Screen Network
