Kir, and Kir Royale image

When we lived in Scotland, Kir, or Kir Royale were the drinks I enjoyed the most. Royale was a special occasion drink, like Christmas or New Year, and Kir was the typical standby for pretty much everything else.

Number Of Ingredients 6

KIR
cassis
white wine
KIR ROYALE
cassis
champagne

Steps:

  • 1. To make Kir: put a bit of cassis in the bottom of a wine glass, about the size that you see the stem through the bottom of the glass. Fill it with white wine, and stir gently.
  • 2. To make Kir Royale: Put cassis in the bottom of a champagne flute, about the size of a dime. Then add cold champagne and gently stir so the bubbles stay bubbly!

This cocktail is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. I probably wouldn't order it again.

The Kir Royale is a great cocktail, but it's a bit too strong for my taste. I prefer to make it with half the amount of crème de cassis.

This cocktail is way too sweet for me. I couldn't even finish it.

I'm not sure I understand the appeal of the Kir Royale. It's just sparkling wine with a splash of fruit liqueur. Seems a bit boring to me.

I've never been a fan of crème de cassis, but I loved it in this cocktail. The sparkling wine really mellowed out the flavor.

The Kir Royale is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I can see why it's so popular. It's a very pretty drink and it's perfect for a party.

I'm not a big fan of sweet cocktails, but the Kir Royale was surprisingly refreshing. The tartness of the black currant liqueur balanced out the sweetness of the sparkling wine nicely.

Tried the Kir Royale with crème de mûre instead of crème de cassis. It was a nice twist on the classic recipe.

This cocktail is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I made a Kir Royale with blackberries and it was delicious!

This Kir Royale cocktail was a delightful treat! The vibrant color and delicate flavor made it a perfect aperitif for our brunch. The balance between the crème de cassis and sparkling wine was spot-on, resulting in a refreshing and elegant drink.
