As we enter our fourteenth year in business, my attention turns to that most celebratory of drinks and that most often associated with opera: Champagne

I reached a time in my life where I thought I would have no champagne moments. No kids graduations or weddings, no one to throw us anniversary parties, etc.

It was at this point that I decided that I would instead drink something sparkling at every opportunity I could. Because all moments are special in their way. 

Bonus: a reasonable sparkling option is often the same or less in price than “normal wine” on many restaurant menus- Hurrah!

My favorite is Korbel Extra Dry or a Prosecco (all nicely affordable) but that is quibbling because I even consider sparkling water to be quite elegant.

Hope you will enjoy my list of sparkling drink choices to celebrate life’s beautiful and amazing moments.

Mimosa
2 part Orange Juice
1 Part Champagne, Prosecco or Cava

Bucks fizz
2 parts Champagne, Prosecco or Cava
1 part Orange Juice

Cindy’s easy lower sugar Poinsettia
I love this any time of year because Cranberry juice is so good for you. A proper poinsettia would include orange liqueur but I find it unnecessarily sweet…

1 part Champagne, Prosecco or Cava
1 part Diet Cranberry Juice (or regular juice if you prefer)

To make any of these non-alcoholic, replace with your own preferred combinations of sparking grape juice, ginger ale or sparkling water. 

Get creative because a spritz of sparkling water or seltzer in any kind of juice is a treat!
