Mont Royale: Kir Royale

/

Our non-alcoholic version of the classic Kir Royale wears the crown for our Dry January Drybations line-up.

A bottle of non-alcoholic sparkling white wine sits on a marble tabletop. Beside it, a silver tray holds two glasses of Kir Royale cocktail, with a third glass beside the tray. A feathery decorative plume sits in background.

The Kir Royale is a cassis liqueur and sparkling wine French cocktail. Cassis is also known as blackcurrant, and since we’re making a non-alcoholic version we’re using a blackcurrant syrup rather than a liqueur for similar effect. We’re using Leitz Eins Zwei Zero Sparkling Riesling which has a nice dryness to it that balances out the sweet blackcurrant and pomegranate nicely.

Ingredients

½ oz blackcurrant syrup (from Monin)

½ oz pomegranate syrup (from Monin)

4-5 oz Leitz Eins Zwei Zero Sparkling Riesling (chilled)

Preparing your non-alcoholic cocktail

  1. Pour chilled sparkling wine into a champagne flute about ¾ full.

  2. Using a cocktail spoon or other small spoon, drizzle first the pomegranate and then the cassis over the back of the spoon and into the sparkling wine, so they are layered at the bottom of the glass.
