The combination of brandy, lemon juice and grenadine creates a perfect balance of sweet and tart, while a splash of champagne adds a subtle effervescence to the mix. This cocktail is perfect for celebratory occasions and is often served at elegant events. Its bright and bubbly character makes it a popular choice for brunch gatherings and summer soirées.
