This recipe from Epicurious. You can also add Brandy or Cognac and a black maraschino cherry to make this a most traditional cocktail. Use any champagne you like. I try this with two split size bottles to see what, if any real difference in taste an dover all flavor profile may be. I use Moet Chandon and Verve Yellow Label. I prefer the lemon twist.
***The non-alcoholic version can be made with ginger beer or club soda. All are refreshing and excite the tastebuds.
