Nothing Like a little Champagne on a Friday: Raspberry Sweet

A pretty cocktail for your Friday vibes! This cocktail is bright and beautiful. I love a champagne cocktail on a friday. It just feels like another addition to the celebration that it's finally Friday.

Raspberry Sweet

Champagne Cocktail

Ingredients

1 oz Vodka

1/2 oz Cointreau

4 dashes of Orange Bitters

1 1/2 oz Raspberry Syrup (Raspberries and Simple Syrup)

Top with Champagne

Garnish: Raspberries

Raspberry Syrup: For this recipe, I like to create a simple syrup with raspberries. This means when I make my simple syrup, I put raspberries in with the sugar. You get this beautiful color and added flavor. Now you can also make this cocktail work with muddled raspberries (think about nine) and simple syrup. You won't get the same experience but both work.

Recipe: In a cocktail shaker with ice, pour raspberry syrup, vodka, cointreau, and dashes of orange bitters. Close and shake until cold. Strain into a flute glass. Top with champagne. Garnish with raspberries.

Because sometimes I cheat...
