CLASSIC CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL WITH A CITRUS TWIST
New Years Eve is tomorrow, which means it's time to pop the cork and treat ourselves to one of the most festive cocktails around: the Champagne cocktail. Champagne is among my favorite things to indulge in during the holidays, and while I can definitely enjoy it on its own, I really love it when it's used as the base of a cocktail. The traditional Champagne cocktail is pretty basic, so I decided to give it a twist by adding a bit of citrus. The reason I chose to add citrus to this beautiful classic is because it pairs perfectly with the effervescent qualities of the champagne. The classic Champagne cocktail consists of a sugar cube doused in angostura bitters and topped with Champagne, so by substituting citrus bitters along with fresh citrus, the cocktail becomes even more celebratory than the original.

When selecting the Champagne for this cocktail, we wanted something moderately dry but with a hint of sweetness. Demi-sec (a French term meaning "half dry") Champagnes and sparkling wines provide the perfect balance.
