Toast the Milwaukee Bucks victory with these Moët & Chandon cocktails
As the official champagne of the NBA, these Moët & Chandon cocktails are the perfect way to toast that Milwaukee Bucks victory. While the players were popping bottles of both the Moët Imperial and Moët Nectar Imperial Rosé, everyone can open their own bottle and celebrate the momentous occasion.
The game was filled with big moments. While it had been 50 years since the Milwaukee Bucks were champions, the number 50 appeared in other ways, too. The game’s MVP, Giannis Antetokounmpo, was the “second player in NBA history to score 50 points in a championship game.”
Given that Moët & Chandon celebrates Greatness Under Pressure, the victory is the perfect time to enjoy these cocktails. Now that the pressure is off, it is time to raise a glass and enjoy the celebration.
Check out these Moët & Chandon cocktails.
