Born in the Roaring Twenties, the "Champs-Élysées Cocktail" has, since 1925, embodied the elegance, flair, and joie de vivre that have long defined the world's most celebrated avenue. To mark its 100th anniversary, the avenue's landmark establishments united by the Champs-Élysées Committee, honor this iconic signature drink and inviting guests to rediscover a cocktail that has accompanied Parisian nights for decades.
