Ingredients
  

  • Crème de cassis liqueur (see notes for recipe variations)
  • 1 (750 mL) bottle of champagne or crémant de Bourgogne or other dry sparkling white wine
  • lemon twists or blackberries, raspberries, lemon twists, or currants (for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Pour 1 teaspoon of crème de cassis in each glass.
  • Top with champagne, garnish as desired, and serve!

Notes

  • RECIPE VARIATIONS: While a Kir Royale is traditionally made with creme de cassis, you can also make a black raspberry Kir Royal by swapping for an equal amount of Chambord. Pomegranate liqueur is another fun twist on the classic recipe too.
  • Unfortunately, there is not a non-alcholic Kir royale I am aware of. For a low alcohol version, top the creme de cassis with a non-alcoholic sparkling wine.
