Cocktail

This variation on the Champagne cocktail skips the standard Angostura bitters in favor of herbal, honeyed Benedictine liqueur and fragrant crème de cacao.

When we first tasted this drink, it was made with Rolling Rock, a mass-market golden lager, and Tropicana-brand orange juice. A more highfalutin' version would be a combination of fresh-squeezed orange juice and a wheat beer, such as Celis White.
