Equipment

  • Champagne flute: These glasses keep the drink bubbly and festive.
  • Measuring jigger: Helps me pour shot-sized measurements accurately.
  • Mixing spoon: I use this to gently stir and blend everything.
  • Ice bucket: Keeps the champagne nice and chill until I'm ready to serve.
  • Citrus juicer: If using fresh oranges or lemons, this comes in handy.

Ingredients

Hereโ€™s what youโ€™ll need to make this cocktail:

  • Champagne or sparkling wine: 1 bottle
  • Cranberry juice: 1 cup
  • Orange liqueur Cointreau or Triple Sec: 1 ounce
  • Fresh cranberries: Handful for garnish
  • Orange slices or zest: Optional for extra flavor

I like using fresh juice, especially during berry season. The mix of tangy cranberry and zesty orange makes this drink a winner. ๐ŸŠ

Instructions

Letโ€™s make this tasty and refreshing drink:

  • Chill your champagne glass: Place it in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Pour cranberry juice: Fill the glass about 1/3 full.
  • Add orange liqueur: A splash will enhance the flavor.
  • Top with champagne: Pour slowly to maintain bubbles.
  • Garnish: Drop in a few cranberries or add a thin orange slice on the rim.

Stir gently if needed, but donโ€™t over-mix to keep the fizz. Cheers to a refreshing experience! ๐ŸŒŸ

    Notes

    For a sweeter taste: Use a bit of honey or simple syrup.
    Alcohol-free option: Substitute champagne with sparkling water.
    Ice cubes: If preferred, though I skip them to avoid diluting the drink.
