Champagne cocktails make the holidays merry and bright

Champagne cocktails are the perfect way to toast the holiday season. With a little bubbles and sparkle, everyone is feeling more festive with every sip.

The holidays are the perfect excuse to showcase impressive entertaining skills. While not everyone can be an expert party planner, champagne cocktails are a festive, and easy, way to add a little sparkle and bubbles to any event. With these holiday cocktails, everyone can toast the entertaining season.

Finding a cocktail that is special, yet appreciated by a large group isn’t always easy, especially during the holidays. The cocktail needs to have a little more vivacity than the traditional, classic cocktail that everyone enjoys. Still, the flavors need to be approachable to keep everyone engaged in the festivities.

Often during the holidays, champagne is the libation of choice. Bubbles always seem to indicate a party or special celebration. Sometimes even the champagne bottles, themselves, get into the holiday spirit.
