Smart and sweet!

Your post just reminded me — we have two bottles of champagne standing upright in our cold cellar. I think they are 3 + years old.

Think they are any good?

@petalique, pop it and drink it! If the champagne has been kept at a constant temperature in a cool environment it should be fine. Ideally, though it should be stored on its side.

So cute!

We are having tart monmorency cherry juice / prosecco cocktails tomorrow Sue. I usually get pomegranite juice too but saw the cherry right next to it and wanted to try it. I’m making dried cherry and mint garnishes —red and green, works for Christmas too 😉

Mtn those little bottles are too cute! The list of juices in the drink looks delicious, but I avoid juice (unless it’s in the occasional cocktail).

On a tenuous tangent: I saw crackers in the Gump’s catalog for NYE that are shaped like bottles of champagne 😎

Very cute. I put together something similar as a gift for a friend who shares my love of bubbly.

I thought I knew all the fruits/berries, but this is the first I've ever heard of acerola. I will look for that juice and use it as an excuse to have some bubbly. Thanks for the suggestion.

Fun, I love that for a cute gift idea!

So cute! That’ll make a great stocking stuffer for my mother.

Ks, oh, we have tart cherry juice too! Will try it. Bonus, medicinal benefits, LOL.

Our grocery store has miniature versions of several different wines. I used to give a couple to my dad for Christmas, years ago, when he lived alone. At least a couple of years ago, World Market carried them too. I got the cutest bottle of sparkling wine for DD when she turned 21.

@petalique, although some experts say it is better to store champagne on its side, others say it is better to store it upright so that the champagne does not become tainted by the cork. You’ve met two of the big criteria for storage - a dark place and a cool place. I bet it will taste just fine.

I love these small cute bottles and meant to post this little one earlier but wasn’t at home. They were favors at the shower I attended recently for our coming great-grandson.

I got sort of hooked on pomegranate spritzers this summer after having one in a little place in Taormina. May have to try the cherry juice too for a change at Christmas.

I often buy Lamarca because it matches our K in Maine! LOL
