128 S U M M E R 2 014 U N TAC K E D The Champ V ictory always calls for Cham- pagne, and the classic mimosa is a favorite to sip back at the barns after a top dressage test or supremely smooth hunter round—especially if it's before noon. But what if you break 70 percent or score a 92 on your handy trip? Then you want a drink as special as the achievement. Enter: The Champ, a chic and beauti- fully colored twist on everyone's favorite brunch cocktail. The Champ uses blood orange juice instead of regular, and it adds crème de cassis for a bit of ad- ditional flavor. The dryness of the Cham- pagne helps temper the sweetness, and the small number of ingredients make this drink easy to put together stall-side. Ingredients: 1½ tsp. crème de cassis (black-currant liqueur) 3 tbsps. fresh-squeezed, strained blood orange juice Top off of brut Champagne or dry sparkling wine Blood orange slices, for garnish LISA SLADE PHOTO FEED ROOM For Your Next Blue-Ribbon Celebration Special note: If blood oranges aren't in season when you complete an achievement worthy of The Champ, some specialty gro- cery stores sell bottled blood orange juice. Instructions: Spoon the crème de cas- sis into a Champagne flute, then add blood orange juice. Fill remainder of glass with Champagne, then stir mixture gently and garnish with orange wedge.
