Favorite Champagne Recipes

To help ring in the new year it usually helps to have a glass of bubbly in your hand. I enjoy champagne every once in a while. Friends have also recommended Prosecco and Cava for a change of pace.
Here’s a few lovely recipes you can use with any of these:
KIR ROYALE: 1/2 shot Creme de Cassis, fill glass with champagne
CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL: 1 sugar cube, place in bottom of glass. Add 2-3 dashes of Angostura Bitters. Add 1 oz. Brandy (if you have it). Add champagne at the last minute.
BELLINI: 1 oz. Peach Nectar, fill glass with champagne.
These are great any time of year but it’s especially fun to try these for New Year’s.
Enjoy! (within reason).

Ooooo, I LOVE champagne! It goes with everything, like french fries! Instead of cassis, consider a splash of “Raspberry di Amore” liqueur in your glass of champagne or sparkling wine.
Note to Jodi the electronic graphics operator:
No, “french” isn’t capitalized in “french fries” because it’s for the cut of the fries: “frenched” (not the country). So those American politicians were way off base for renaming them Freedom Fries since they have nothing to do with France.
