Festive French Cranberry Cocktail with Organic Pink Sparkling Wine
Festive French 75
50ml good quality organic or artisan-made Gin
25ml organic Lemon juice
25ml Cranberry sauce, ideally, homemade leftovers.
100ml Sparkling rosé wine
Lemon peel
Method
Purée the cranberry sauce and double strain so it’s extra smooth.
Shake the gin, cranberry and lemon juice in a shaker (or jam jar with lid) and ice.
Strain into a Champagne flute and top with rosé wine.
Peel a thin strip of lemon, curl it around a chopstick or pencil and balance over the rim of the glass
You can prepare this recipe in advance by mixing all of the ingredients apart from the rosé and keeping them chilled in the fridge. Once ready, divide amongst the glasses and top with sparkling organic rosé wine. Vintage Roots, one of the first organic wine merchants in the UK has some delectable festive organic bubbly, including Luisa Merlot Spumante, named after the maker's mother.
