When I want the real Maryland Experience, there's nothing better than a crush. This Champagne version is a fun twist that is way more applicable than others.
A Champagne Crush
Champagne Cocktail
Ingredients
1 1/2 oz Gin
1 oz Grapefruit Juice
1/2 oz Lime Juice
Top with Champagne
Garnish: Lime Wedge
Recipe: In a cocktail shaker with ice, pour gin, grapefruit juice, and lime juice. Close and Shake until cold (about ten seconds). Strain into a champagne flute. Top with Champagne. Garnish with a lime wedge.
Optional: Add some simple syrup. I personally find champagne cocktails don't need the extra sugar, but some people might find this one a bit bitter. About a half ounce in the shaker will make it a bit sweeter.
