The Twelve Drinks of Winter No. 6: Kir Royale
The Kir Royale might be the most romantic drink ever (she writes after drinking one). There are few things more joyous than champagne, and champagne tinged garnet with blackcurrant liquer has la vie en rose written all over it. It’s named after the once-mayor of Dijon, but don’t worry about it. Pour 1 part crème de cassis into a flute, top up gently with 5 parts champagne, fall in love.
Happy Valentine’s Day!

There’s also the Kir Royale using Chambord for those with the deep pockets! And to twist or not to twist, is another question.
