Mix accordion, a musette waltz and the oompahpah-pahs of the Firemen’s Ball with the “Je t’aime de 14 juillet”. Take a tightrope walker in midair from under the cupola of the Cirque d’Hiver. Throw in a sandwich and liqueurs from a pre-war café on rue de la Main-d’Or, some shiny souvenirs of oldtime trades – boiler makers, scrap-metal merchants, and matchstick sellers – and that’s the first third.

Next, take a parade of demonstrators marching and chanting from the column at the Bastille to the statue with its Phrygian bonnet at République. Incorporate several revolutions, powder and canons.

Finally, the last third: spice with a pinch of Brazil, lemon, cane sugar, Cap Vert, salsa and tapas, one after the other. Sprinkle with showrooms and fashionable spots, soup stores, Wi-Fi, fruit juice, and make-up. Season with plush sofas, silver dance floors, moleskin wall seats and the soft lighting of inner-rooms and glean some glam rock, jungle, disco remix, high-spirited DJs, and alternative labels. Do not shake – the cocktail is self-activating!
