• 3 parts vodka

• 1 part creme de cassis

• black currants or blackberry for garnish

shake vodka and creme de cassis with ice until frosty

strain into martini glass

top off with prosecco

garnish with berries

notes:

This cocktail happened when I couldn’t decide between a kir royale and a vodka martini. If you feel like riffing on this, I think elderflower or any other cordial used in champagne cocktails would work as well.
