Ingredients

4 oz Champagne or sparkling wine
1 Sugar cube
2 dashes Angostura bitters
1 Lemon twist

Directions

Step 1

Chill a champagne flute in the refrigerator or freezer for 10-15 minutes beforehand for optimal results.

Step 2

Place a sugar cube in the bottom of the chilled champagne flute.

Step 3

Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters directly onto the sugar cube, allowing it to soak in.

Step 4

Carefully pour 4 ounces of chilled champagne or sparkling wine into the flute, being mindful of foam to avoid overflow.

Step 5

Lightly stir the drink with a bar spoon to help the sugar cube dissolve slightly and blend with the bitters and champagne.

Step 6

Garnish the cocktail with a fresh lemon twist by twisting a strip of lemon peel over the glass to release its essential oils, then dropping it into the drink as decoration.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy!
