A timeless French 75 made with gin, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup, finished with crisp Prosecco. Bright, celebratory, and effortlessly elegant.

Because every drink deserves a beautiful moment.

A classic French 75 cocktail served in a coupe glass, pale and lightly bubbly, garnished with a twisted lemon peel on a white surface against a dark background.

Ingredients

1 ounce gin
½ ounce fresh lemon juice
½ ounce simple syrup
3–4 ounces Prosecco

Instructions

Add the gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup to a shaker glass.
Fill with ice and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds.
Strain into a flute or coupe glass.
Top with Prosecco.
Garnish with a lemon twist.

Notes from the Bar

Spirit Choice

A classic London dry gin keeps the drink crisp and clean. If you prefer something softer, a floral or citrus-forward gin works beautifully here.

Ritual Tip

Before twisting the lemon peel, gently warm it between your fingers. Express it over the glass to release the oils, then place it on the rim for a subtle citrus aroma with each sip.

Bubbles Matter

Use a well-chilled Prosecco for the best texture and lift. The colder the bubbles, the finer and more elegant the finish.

Glassware

Traditionally served in a flute, but a coupe gives a slightly softer, more relaxed presentation without losing the sparkle.

Make It a Date Nite

This cocktail is part of something bigger for us. It's a ritual we return to week after week.

Each week, we create a Date Nite designed around one drink, one thoughtful menu, and the feeling of slowing down together. The kind of night where the table is set with intention, the music hums softly in the background, and the evening unfolds without rushing.

For this Date Nite, we’ve paired a cocktail with a cozy, make-ahead-friendly menu, so you can enjoy the process without spending the whole night in the kitchen. We also include little touches we love like timing notes, a head start option, and a playlist to set the mood. Feel to pair the meal with any of our cocktails.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about presence. And turning an ordinary night at home into something that feels quietly special.

Each Date Nite includes a curated menu, cocktail pairing and a playlist, as well as another thoughtful extras like make-ahead tips, leftover ideas or table talk prompts to carry the night.

A Birthday Reflection on Self-Trust and Personal Year Numerology

Date Nite turned one this week, and in a way, so did I. One year ago, two days before my birthday, I launched the vision I’d been holding. The idea had lived in my heart for nearly two years, tugging at me quietly but persistently. I knew it was meant for us, but I didn’t know how to start, and that uncertainty kept me waiting longer than I’d like to admit. Then in April of 2024, while visiting my dear friend Erica in California for Kevin’s birthday, something shifted. We ca
