This old-fashioned cocktail, named for the French 75 mm gun of World War I, is nearly extinct outside of New Orleans. This is very refreshing, provided you like champagne.
Ingredients:
3 ice cubes
1 1/4 ounces gin
1 teaspoon sugar
1 ounce lemon juice
dry champagne (or other sparkling wine)
Directions:
1. Into a cocktail shaker, place 3 ice cubes, gin, sugar, and lemon juice. Shake very well with flair.
2. Strain contents of shaker into a champagne glass, then top off the glass with champagne. Serve immediately.
