Steps:
- Mix ginger, sugar, water and curacao all together in a saucepan and bring to a slow simmer. Reduce mix by 50 percent until a syrupy consistency is reached. Keep in mind that the syrup will thicken as it cools. Strain warm syrup and allow to cool completely in the refrigerator. Take ginger slices and completely coat in sugar. Spread on sheet pan and slowly dry out in a preheated 225 degree oven for 3 hours. Ginger slices should be dried but still chewy.
- Using champagne flutes, add 1 tablespoon of the syrup and fill to the top with champagne. Drop a small sliver of candied ginger in each glass, enjoy.
Tips:
- Chill your ingredients: The key to a refreshing Kir Royale is to use chilled ingredients. This will help to enhance the flavors of the champagne and liqueur.
- Use a good quality champagne: The champagne is the star of the show in a Kir Royale, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a champagne that is dry and has a good balance of acidity and fruit.
- Add a splash of crème de cassis: Crème de cassis is a blackcurrant liqueur that adds a beautiful color and a delicious flavor to the Kir Royale. Start with a small amount and adjust to taste.
- Garnish with a fresh berry: A fresh berry, such as a raspberry or blackberry, adds a touch of elegance and flavor to the Kir Royale. Plus, it looks pretty!
Conclusion:
The Kir Royale is a classic cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, delicious, and always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and festive drink, give the Kir Royale a try. You won't be disappointed!
