Blueberry 75
This cocktail is a holiday twist on the classic French 75, perfect for celebrating the solstice or ringing in the New Year. This cocktails utilizes Ontario produced Tawse Spark Riesling. Tawse’s Spark is best suited for this drink as it has flavourful hints of lemon zest, honey, and mineral. The Blueberry 75 is a well balanced—yet tastefully tart cocktail, and is something your holiday guests are sure to love.
