The Sepia French 75 Recipe
[Photograph: Roger Kamholz]
A classic, with a twist. This rosy house cocktail at Chicago's Sepia has been a mainstay on the menu longer than Josh Pearson, a four-year veteran of the place, has been behind the bar.
Note: To make simple syrup, combine 1 cup water with 1 cup sugar in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Cool before using. Simple syrup will keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
