Burner 75 (AKA French 75)
This classic cocktail has been modified to be pre-mixed and poured from a 5 gallon keg. As Champagne or sparkling wine is carbonated, CO2 gas is used to push the cocktail from the keg into the glass.
Ingredients
- 59 ounce gin, dry
- 27 ounce simple syrup,
- 27 ounce lemon juice, fresh squeezed strained if pulp is present
- 64 ounce Yerba Mate Lemon
- 3750 ml champagne or sparkling white wine, brut or dry
Servings: drinks

Instructions
- Begin by having a clean and sanitized 5 gallon keg ready and the lid removed. I like to purge the keg with CO2 gas, as this gas is heavier than air, helping preventing oxygenation.
- Pour in the gin of choice, simple syrup, lemon juice, Yerba Mate Lemon and sparkling wine. Seal with its lid and attach the CO2 gas to the out port on the keg. Turn the regulator to 40 PSI and begin to shake the keg. After a few shakes, lift the pressure relief value to purge any remaining air in the keg. This will also help keep the chance of this cocktail going bad.
- Shake the keg for 3 - 4 minutes, letting the keg fill with gas, while mixing the cocktail.
- Remove the gas line and label the cocktail. Place it into a The libation Trailer, kegerator or other refrigeration and keep below 40°F | 4°C. Before serving, give the keg a shake, just to be sure all the ingredients are mixed.
- To serve, pour this cocktail on CO2 into glasses and you are done!
