We had a request for the Part & Parcel Cocktail so we looked it up and made this our own. We created a four citrus blend simple syrup with Orange, Lemon, Lime and Grapefruits! It is Liquid Sunshine. We also freshly squozed Florida Grapefruits from our Uncle and Aunt who had sent them to Patti's Mom. These Grapefruits were awesome. I substituted Orange bitters for Grapefruit Bitters by adding fresh grapefruit peels. Of course the lime juice we used was fresh squeezed also! Check this show out!!

Part & Parcel Cocktails for 2:

4 oz. Monkey 47 Gin / 1.5oz. St Germain Elderflower Liqueur / 1.5 oz. Grapefruit juice / 1 oz. Lime juice / 1 oz. Citrus Simple Syrup 

Shaken in our Elevated Craft Hybrid Cocktail Shaker of course for maximum chill and mixing! Get yours today in the link below!

This is a riff on the French 75 cocktail using Grand Marnier. We have stepped it up with the new Louis Alexandre Cuvée made with VSOP Cognac and the classic bitter orange liqueur that has made Grand Marnier famous. We had to use higher end version of Grand Marnier because we are using a quality French champagne - Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut. 

The Grand 75 a la Cuvée Louis Alexandre 

1oz Freshly squeezed lemon juice 

2 oz Cuvée Louis Alexandre Grand Marnier

Shake and strain into a flute glass 

Top with Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut
