Chambord & Champagne: a treat at under 200 calories

My New Year’s resolution to lose some of my holiday weight is slowly paying off, and these low calorie cocktails are helping.  Dieting Salt Lake City cocktail lovers have much to celebrate.  Cocktails with less than 200 calories are compatible with almost any diet.  The last post delivered the recipe for the Chambord Flavored Vodka & Perrier.  Today we have something a little different: a Champagne cocktail recipe from Chambord that weighs in at 199 Calories.  Utah cocktail lovers are already familiar with Chambord® Black Raspberry Liqueur from France.  Add a little sparkling wine and you have a close relative of the Kir Royale: the Chambord & Champagne.  Enjoy.

Chambord & Champagne
1/2 oz Chambord Black Raspberry Liqueur
4 oz Korbel® Champagne
Pour Chambord in the bottom of a chilled champagne flute and top with ice-cold champagne.  Drop in a black raspberry and savor the taste.
