In my play on the French 75, I make it more about the gin and less about citrus. Grapefruit and maple syrup work so well together.

2	oz	Gin	use Plymouth
½	oz	Lemon juice
½	oz	Maple syrup
1½	oz	Wine (sparkling) or Champagne
1	dash(es)	Grapefruit bitters

Shake all the ingredients (except the champagne and grapefruit coin) with ice, then double strain into a coupe. Top with champagne. Squeeze the grapefruit coin over the drink and discard. No garnish.

¼	oz	Pomegranate syrup	just reduce POM Wonderful
3	dash(es)	Blood orange bitters
