Doc Daneeka Royale | Cocktail Party

Doc Daneeka Royale

Doc Daneeka Royale is a mouth-watering sparkler featuring gin, citrus, and maple. It’s a riff on the classic French 75 from Alex Day at Death & Co. The grapefruit bitters are a standout star here, playing up the lemon and the maple and lending the drink an almost candy-like quality while still keeping the sweetness in check and the gin forward.

Day uses Champagne for his recipe. You can use any sparkling white you like, or even a rosé, as long as it’s on the dry side.

Ingredients

Instructions

Shake everything (except the sparkling wine) with ice. Strain into a chilled cocktail or coupe glass and top with the sparkling wine. Squeeze a piece of grapefruit or lemon peel over the drink and then discard.

An awesome cocktail app with curated recipes

I'm shocked that there are no reviews listed for this app. I found it on reddit's cocktails forum. The drink list in this app is much shorter than in many of the other apps I've seen, but the quality and reliability of the recipes is much much higher. These are more like the drinks you would get at a good mixology bar instead of the drink equivalent of your aunt's jello fruit mold that people just "love." I much prefer a list of cocktails that are reliable, good and repeatable than a huge pile of garbage recipes. This app is great and delivers great, reliable cocktails.
