Which syrup goes well with French 75?
You can easily use cane sugar syrup for your drink. In the original, the French 75 is often mixed without syrup and instead with the common household cane sugar variant. Instead of Prosecco, the original usually contains champagne. But also a crémant or a delicious one Sparkling wine of your choice can be the right choice here. Choose the variant that suits you best.
