Love Potion No. 9

• Simple Strawberry Syrup:
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup water
• 2 cups quartered fresh strawberries
• Cocktail:
• coarse white decorating sugar
• 1 fluid ounce vodka
• 1/2 fluid ounce amaretto liqueur
• ice
• 2 fluid ounces Champagne, chilled
• 3 tablespoons vanilla ice cream
• 1 strawberry

1. Stir together sugar and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat until sugar is dissolved. Add strawberries and bring to a boil; boil for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until consistency is syrupy, about 10 minutes.
2. Strain liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a resealable jar, pressing solids to extract liquid; chill.
3. Dip a coupe glass rim into a shallow saucer of water. Spread decorating sugar on a separate small, shallow plate. Dip glass rim into sugar to coat.
4. Pour vodka, amaretto, and 1/2 fluid ounce strawberry simple syrup into a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice. Cover and shake until very cold. Strain into the prepared glass. Top with Champagne, then add ice cream. Garnish with strawberry.
