This classic champagne cocktail features a shot of vodka shaken with fresh lemon juice and simple syrup, then topped with sparkling wine for a bright, celebratory finish. Serve it for New Year's Eve, holiday brunches or anytime you need to raise a glass with something bubbly. If you've heard of the French 75, the French 76 is just the same cocktail that swaps out the gin for vodka. If you're looking for other simple cocktails, try the Carajillo 43 (with just 2 ingredients!) or shake up a festive Bees Knees.

If you want to make a French 75, simply swap the 1 ounce of vodka for 1 ounce of gin. That’s the only difference between the two cocktails.
