Champagne cocktail
A refined aperitif cocktail that dates to at least the 1850s and never goes out of style. Some recipes call for a splash of Cognac as well. This is an edited extract from Spirited by Adrienne Stillman (RRP $69.96). Photography by Andy Sewell.

- 1 white sugar cube
- 3 dashes Angostura bitters

1.Place the sugar cube in a flute and saturate with Angostura bitters. Slowly top with brut-style Champagne or dry sparkling wine. The sugar will cause the wine to fizz more than usual, so pour slowly. Garnish with a lemon twist.
