Method
step 1
Put the sugar cube on a small dish, then drizzle with the bitters, turning a few times so it’s fully coated.

Drop the cube into a champagne flute, then top up with the cognac. Slowly pour over the champagne.
step 3
Twist the orange peel over to express the oils, then discard or loop around the stem of the glass.
