CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QC Life) - QC@3 is in the kitchen whipping up some drinks.

Angelica Belo from Alchemy joined the show to show us how to make two drinks - one with alcohol and one without.

The first is a Frenchie and it’s a riff on a classic cocktail called the French 75. It is very light and refreshing. Luxardo is a cherry liquor and orgeat is an almond sweetener.
