Mig Royale

1 oz. Plymouth gin
3/4 oz. Cointreau
1/2 oz. Luxardo Maraschino
1/2 oz. Lemon juice
Dry champagne

Shake everything over ice.  Strain into a flute/coupe then top with champagne.
    

I had pretty high hopes for this drink.  Mainly because the picture in the book makes it look so delicious.  But in the end it was just okay.  The Maraschino is so powerful so it comes through quite a bit.  But it's easy to make so I went ahead and made two. :)

  1. I thought it was bad. :-(
    So sour. And what's that odd note? Is that the marachino?

    1. Hey Kathy, the oddity is the maraschino for sure...give a French 75 a try. Still acidic, but no maraschino :)
