Another recipe we modified that tries to balance out the ‘Brutness’ (should I say ‘brutality’? ahahahahahaha) of Lanson‘s delicious Black Label Champagne with a few substances that’ll stimulate other regions of your tongue…
The sloe gin gives it a bit of a sweetness, where the rum gives it some of that warmth and body. It might not work quite so well with a dark rum but I’d like to try it anyway.
Feel free to substitute out the Lanson with something a little less sharp a sweeter flavour. Or try it with lemon juice if you’re a goddamn maniac… :3
