John Legend’s LVE 75 Cocktail

If you like a touch of citrus, try John Legend’s LVE 75 cocktail, which is based on the recipe for a French 75. That cocktail is usually made with gin, but vodka works just as well. We think the orange liquor adds a bit of soul to the old classic.

Makes one drink.

 1 fl oz gin or vodka
 ½ fl oz lemon juice
 ½ fl oz simple syrup
 ½ fl oz Cointreau or orange liquor
 LVE French Sparkling Rosé (to taste--approximately 2 oz. per drink)
1

Add gin or vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup, and Cointreau or orange liquor to a cocktail shaker.

2

Fill shaker with ice and shake well for about 30 seconds.

3

Strain shaker contents into a coupe or flute; top with LVE French Sparkling Rosé. 2 oz. is usually about right.
