Bienville
We think the Bienville is like Jacques’ cooking style; unpretentious, unfussy, well-done and delicious. It is a riff on the classic French 75, this heady Cognac version assumes a floral hint from the elderflower liqueur St-Germain and elusive anise notes from Peychaud’s Bitters. Complex and worth savoring, it’s an after-dinner drink for sure.
