KK in the Kitchen
There’s no better way to trade “holiday hustle” for “merry and bright” than settling in with a cocktail worth savoring. This season, we’re bringing a touch of Paris straight to you—in the form of a perfectly prepped Ritz Sidecar, inspired by the legendary Bar Hemingway at the Ritz Paris.
Crafted by renowned barman Colin Peter Field, this world-celebrated classic blends rare pre-phylloxera Ritz Fine Champagne 1865 Cognac with Cointreau and fresh lemon juice.
And the best part? You can enjoy it right at home. Cheers to you-and to creating your own parfait Parisian moment this holiday season. À votre santé!
