This mixed drink was named after the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, a boulevard in Paris. It is 70 metres wide and 1910 metres long, between Place de la Concorde and Place Charles-de-Gaulle, where the Arc de Triomphe is located. This street has borne its name since 1789, and it means “Avenue of the Elysian Fields”, derived from Elysion, the Island of the Blessed, where, according to Greek mythology, those heroes arrived who had received immortality from the gods. [1][2]
In 1928, a recipe for a Champs-Élysées cocktail also appeared in a Parisian newspaper. It is a mixture of equal parts Calvados, Kümmel and Bénédictine. [5]

60 ml Park XO cognac
20 ml lemon juice
15 ml Chartreuse verte
5 ml sugar syrup (2:1)
1 Dash Angostura bitters
Preparation: Shaken.
Alternatively and currently preferred by us:
60 ml Chateau de Beaulon VSOP cognac
20 ml lemon juice
15 ml Chartreuse verte
5 ml sugar syrup (2:1)
1 short Dash Angostura bitters
Preparation: Shaken 15 times (maximum 6 seconds) with 2 ice cubes. The drink only tolerates a little melt water.
The Champs-Élysées is a mixed drink of the golden 1920s. It first appeared in a book published in London in 1925.
There are a wide variety of mixing ratios. We basically chose the one by Jim Meehan and Sasha Petraske, but with a little less sugar syrup.
This mixed drink was named after the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, a boulevard in Paris. It is 70 metres wide and 1910 metres long, between Place de la Concorde and Place Charles-de-Gaulle, where the Arc de Triomphe is located. This street has borne its name since 1789, and it means “Avenue of the Elysian Fields”, derived from Elysion, the Island of the Blessed, where, according to Greek mythology, those heroes arrived who had received immortality from the gods. [1] [2]
In 1928, a recipe for a Champs-Élysées cocktail also appeared in a Parisian newspaper. It is a mixture of equal parts Calvados, Kümmel and Bénédictine. [5]
