We were gifted a bottle of Veuve Clicquot, and while I do like straight Champagne I decided to make a couple of cocktails with too. One was a French 75 (with gin), and the other is this one whose name escapes me.
3/4 oz. Cognac
1/2 oz. Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur
1/4 oz. maraschino cherry “juice” (if using maraschino liqueur instead, also add a little simple syrup or the drink will be too intense)
Champagne or other sparkling white wine
Stir the first 3 ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled flute glass. Top up with Champagne.
