With its unique, deep blue color and effervescent charm, this Champagne cocktail is perfect for New Year's Eve or any other festive occasion. The subtle floral hints of crème de violette pair perfectly with the bright, seasonal citrus and your favorite gin. Leftover crème de violette can be stirred into glazes for pastry or used to macerate berries.

I couldn't find champagne at my local grocery store. I ended up using prosecco instead, and it turned out great!

This cocktail is a bit strong for my taste. I would recommend using less vodka or adding some club soda to dilute it.

I had a hard time finding lemon sorbet at my local grocery store. I ended up using lime sorbet instead, and it turned out great!

This cocktail is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less lemon sorbet or adding some club soda to balance out the sweetness.
