Recipe Note

Variations & Ideas:

• Add a bit of Urfa chili to a few tablespoons of the syrup and serve with Savory Drop Biscuits.

• If you're not a cognac fan this drink works very well with gin. Pick something lighter and more floral like Hendrick's or 135 East.

• Use 1 tablespoon of Lemon Sultana Marmalata instead of the Mishmish syrup. Muddle with the lemon juice, substitute gin for the cognac, strain, and top with a Loire sparkling chenin blanc.

• Sub 2 tsp of La Boîte American Amaro for 2 tsp of the lemon juice, use old tom gin instead of cognac, and replace the champagne with prosecco col fondo for a drier and lightly bitter cocktail.

• This is a great drink in the summer time also. Sub gin for cognac, add a few juniper berries to the shaker, and serve over ice in a collins glass.
