#DOTW: French 75

You don’t always need an occasion to drink something elegant. Just celebrate life for once. Personally, I love champagne and whatever you can make with champagne, so this cocktail is right up my alley, and I will have at least one while watching Scandal on my DVR later on. Seems appropriate. Enjoy this fancy cocktail!

Cheers!
