Ostend Fizz Royale

It's hard to accidental wherefore this early-20th-century cocktail is named aft the metropolis successful Belgium, considering it calls for an Alpine cherry brandy (kirsch oregon kirschwasser) and a achromatic currant liqueur from Dijon, France.

In immoderate case, this is acold superior to the well-known kir royale, made with creme de cassis alone. The archetypal calls for nine soda, but this "royale" mentation calls for sparkling wine, preferably champagne oregon Cremant de Bourgogne. Though it's tempting to simply determination the spirits straight into the solid and stir, shaking creates a much appealing and little cloying drink.
