    My new favorite fizzy libation! This is what I want from a bartender. Vest and shirtsleeves, an interesting bit of history or trivia, and a well-crafted drink. A lost art, to be certain.

    Awesomely beautiful looking/sounding. I've never had one. I want one. And I could have one right now - there's a very large bottle of Moet & Chandon in my cupboard, along with some Bombay Sapphire on my shelf. Plus, I always have lemons and sugar syrup at the ready.
    But I'm gonna wait. When my family comes around for Christmas, I'll pop the Moet open and do French 75s for everyone. It'll be festive, and it'll help bring the family back together once again.
    Thank you.

    Dear Mr. Mc Willian, I would like to thank you for all the nice and so well done cocktail videos that you're showing us! I have been watching your videos many times with the total confidence that you're really showing how it has to be done and now, I'm finally getting a job as a bartender!! You're truly a Cocktail Maestro I would say!!! Thank you!

    A master at his craft. I hope to meet you at the bar one day, Mr. McMillan. My wife recently discovered the French 75 (while dining at Arnoud’s nonetheless) and it has become her new favorite drink. From a couple of New Orleanians, cheers!

    I love nothing more than a proper French 75 in New Orleans. Just had some this week when I was there... I love the gin version and also the cognac version. Need to do a side by side comparison. Mr B's bistro, Arnauds and Sazerac bar have really nice French 75s... I will have to go to the Ritz and try one there.

    Maybe the most perfect cocktail ever invented. It's got so many dimensions. This guy knows how to make it, too--only thing I do differently is 2 oz. gin instead of the 1.5 he uses.
    Oh, and maybe for brunch it's fine in a flute, but I like mine as a long drink, over ice in a Collins glass (and that's how my grandparents always made them, too).

    You can also use a potatoe peeler to get the rind off the citrus without too much pith.
