What In the World Is The Bubbleista Drinking (WITWITBD): The “French 73” an Original Champagne Cocktail Recipe

Here’s what you should definitively know about The Bubbleista:

  • I love a good champagne cocktail in general
  • “status quo” anything is not where I reside
  • my cocktail vibe is distinctive, layered flavors that surprise, enchant, and delight

That said, I absolutely adore the classic French 75. Upon doing some cocktail research on it, however, I discovered that there were several other “French 70’s” style cocktails! I’d heard of the French 76 before, but didn’t know there were so many others! Check these out:

  • a French 74 is vodka, orange juice; simple; and champagne (which is my mind is just a mimosa meets a screwdriver).  {http://www.howtomixcocktails.com/cocktail/585.htm} ??????????????
  • French 76: http://www.drinksmixer.com/drink6946.html VODKA  LEMO SUGAR — https://www.diffordsguide.com/cocktails/recipe/791/french-76
