1. Place a few strawberries into the bottom of each champagne flute;
2. pour in the cane syrup and cognac; 
3. fill up the glass with champagne. 

Don't forget to make up a little platter with more strawberries, syrup and cognac - or just a nice dish of strawberries - so that you can continue the pairing until the bottle is empty!

Remember, too, to have an ice-filled champagne bucket on hand. There may be a lull between glasses and you want the champagne to stay cold!
