Curious Elixir No. 7
A non-alcoholic sparkling cocktail modelled on the French 77, built on Chardonnay grape concentrate with elderflower, lavender, and a dry gentian finish.
About This Drink
Curious No. 7 takes the French 77 as its reference: a champagne-style cocktail where elderflower does much of the flavouring work. Here, Chardonnay grape concentrate stands in for the fizz, with organic elderflower extract and lavender keeping the floral character intact. Green tea with jasmine adds a quiet tannin backbone, and juniper extract brings a faint dryness. The colour is pale straw with fine, persistent bubbles. The aroma is elderflower upfront, then lavender and a thread of lemon zest. On the palate it's light-bodied and crisp, with the white grape sweetness balanced by the dry bitterness of gentian root. The jasmine sits quietly in the background, adding a layer of complexity without intruding. Serve in a coupe, well chilled, with a twist of lemon peel.
