“À la vôtre” is a common and polite way to say “Cheers” in French. It's generally used after a toast and/or before drinking with a group of people.
It literally means “To yours” with “Yours” referring to “Your health” (Ta santé).
In a formal context or when talking to several people, use “À la vôtre” (To yours) or “À votre santé” (To your health).
In an informal context or when talking to only one person, use instead “À la tienne” (To yours) or “À ta santé” (To your health).
Also, in both cases you can use simply “Santé” (Health) if you prefer.
