Note from Ricardo

This recipe was inspired by RinQuinQuin à la Pêche, a liqueur made locally in Provence that blends peaches, white wine, alcohol and cane sugar. A Kir Royale is a French aperitif that combines Champagne with crème de cassis. Our kir cocktail is a happy marriage of these two French specialties.
