Aperitif

A lighthearted take on the "French 75". Originally this cocktail was named after the French army's weapon of choice during World War I: the French 75-millimeter light field gun.

My style of cocktailing is familiar with a modern twist. I like to utilize ingredients that are mostly easy to get or make. I try to be mindful and make use of what I have on hand without compromising quality. I'm a creative at heart and this is one of my favorite creative outlets. I am a videographer, photographer, lover of art, & a craft cocktail connoisseur.
