the champagne cocktail which was popular in the 30s and 40s was different because the bitters were burned in a pyrex measuring cup with a lit match which created a caramelized effect. you can see Cary Grant doing this in a movie with Deborah Kerr in The Grass is Greener. i always knew that i was missing something. you’ll love the cocktail even more once you taste this.
