Fresh and subtle, sparkling and delicately sweet, this recipe is irresistible and very economical!

- 50 g of cane sugar
How to do
1. In a large container, like a salad bowl, I pour the cane sugar, Cointreau and lemon juice.

3. I serve immediately, with a ladle, in flutes!
Results
And there you have it, you made your champagne cocktail without breaking the bank :-)
Easy to do, fast and very economical!
In addition, everyone appreciates this light and sparkling cocktail. With Cointreau, we also call this cocktail "Angevin soup".
Bonus tip
"A good crémant is better than a bad champagne" was my father's motto.
It must be said that during the end of the year celebrations, bubbles are in the spotlight at home! But, champagne is not accessible to all budgets.
So I don't hesitate to replace my bottle of champagne with one of crémant, less expensive and just as sparkling!
Savings made
- 1 bottle of Crémant d'Alsace (for example): € 6.10
- 1 ladle of Cointreau: approximately 10 cl at € 28.27 per liter or € 2.82
- 1 ladle of lemon juice: around 10 cl at 4.30 € per liter or 0.43 €
- 50 g of cane sugar: at € 2.20 per kilo, i.e. € 0.11
That is a festive aperitif at € 1.57 per guest or € 9.46 for 6 people.
It goes without saying that this succulent and delicious preparation should be drunk in moderation! Alcohol abuse is dangerous for health.
