Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a classic French 75 and a pink French 75?
The classic uses lemon juice and simple syrup. This version uses our Rose Cordial for floral sweetness and that gorgeous pink color.
Can I use other sparkling wines?
Yes. Rosé champagne is lovely but Prosecco or Cava also work. Choose a dry bubbly that lets the gin and rose shine.
Where does the rose flavor come from?
All the floral notes come from our Rose Cordial. It adds a fragrant lift without the work of making a separate syrup.
