Southern Slammer - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 tbsp brown sugar
2 None limes
2/3 cup Southern Comfort
2/3 cup grenadine
None None Ice cubes
1 None bottle champagne or sparkling wine (750ml)

Preparation

Spread the brown sugar on a saucer. Cut a slice from 1 lime and rub around the rim of each of eight cocktail glasses. Dip the rims into the sugar, then clean off any excess using the lime slice. Using a vegetable peeler, peel a length of zest that stretches two-thirds of the way around the lime. Thinly slice the lime and lime zest using a sharp knife to create a garnish.
Squeeze the juice from the remaining lime into a cocktail shaker. Add the Southern Comfort, grenadine and ice cubes and stir for 20-30 seconds until the mixture is extremely cold. Strain into the cocktail glasses and top each with a little champagne. Garnish with the prepared lime slices and zest and serve.
