Kir Royal

The Kir Royal cocktail is a great aperitif for a special occasion. 

Ingredients

1 oz Chambord

4 oz Champagne

Garnish

None but if you are making them for a party, freeze raspberries and float one per glass.

Glassware

7 oz champagne flute

Assembly

Refrigerate the Chambord until use.  Put Chambord in the flute first and top with Champagne.

Suggestions

Not all champagnes are the same.  You definitely want a brut champagne for this recipe.  No Moscato d’Asti.
