Head to head
Champs-Élysées and Jasmine side by side: what changes in the recipe, the balance, the strength and the calories.
The difference, by the numbers
They have no ingredient in common: the Champs-Élysées has Cognac, Green Chartreuse, sweet-and-sour mix and Angostura bitters, the Jasmine gin, triple sec, Campari and lemon juice. In parts, a Champs-Élysées is 3 brandy, 1 Chartreuse and 1½ sweet-and-sour mix; a Jasmine is 2 gin, ¼ triple sec, ¼ Campari and 1 lemon. By volume, the Champs-Élysées is 55% spirit, 27% citrus and 18% liqueur; the Jasmine is 55% spirit, 27% citrus, 9% fortified wine and bitter and 9% liqueur. Different bottles, similar balance: that makes them close cousins on the ratio map.
