Make This Champagne Float With the Asian Citrus Fruit Yuzu

Welcome to Thirsty Thursday! Each week we toast the coming weekend with a new adult beverage for you to enjoy. Tweet @SELFmagazine and our associate editor of food + nutrition @MarjorieKorn and tell us what you're imbibing. Cheers! Next time you're in an Asian market with a produce section, look for a yellow-green citrus fruit that looks like a misshapen lemon called yuzu, which appears often in Asian cooking. Those in the know also use it in cocktails. According to Aliya LeeKong, author of Exotic Table and chef at Junoon in New York City, "It has notes of lime, grapefruit and mandarin along with a floral muskiness and a bit of salinity."
