These two cocktails were created by Bombay Sapphire's Master Mixologist James Moreland. One is a new twist on the classic French 75; the other is purely romantic. Moreland has been a bartending fixture in New York City for more than eight years, most notably as head bartender at the famed, mixology-forward Town Bar. Now he travels the country looking for new flavors and cocktail ideas for Bombay Sapphire.
