Watermelon French 75

Enjoy summer's sweetest fruit with this Watermelon French 75! This refreshing cocktail blends the sweetness of watermelon with the sparkle of Champagne, making it the perfect sipper for hot summer days! I chose Empress Elderflower Rose Gin for its delicate floral notes that perfectly complement the fresh watermelon juice. It's light, bubbly, and just as delightful as the class French 75. Cheers to summer in a glass! Skål and cheers!
