There it is: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chez-germain.fr\">Chez-Germain<\/a><\/p>\n<p>And this can be our little secret (another one): made in France using fresh elderflower blossom, St-Germain liqueur was created in 2007 by an American captivated by the charms of Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s, Rob Cooper. It must have been in his blood, because his grandfather N.J. Sky Cooper was none other than the creator of the raspberry liqueur Chambord, in 1987, another bartender classic.<\/p>\n<p>Alas for our English-speaking friends, Chez-Germain only exists in French.
