In a previous post about affordable wine for the holidays, CafeMom VineyardValues told us how to stretch a bottle of champagne or sparkling wine into many glasses by adding fruit juice or puree. That's pretty good advice now that New Year's Eve is just around the corner!
VineyardValues suggests adding cranberry juice or peach nectar. Keep reading for more yummy-sounding champagne cocktails.
Here are some suggestions of delicious ingredients you can add to your champagne or sparkling wine for New Year's Eve or your next celebration. A good rule to follow is 1 part ingredient to 1 part champagne:
- Fresh peach or mango puree (a.k.a. the Bellini)
- Orange juice (for the classic mimosa combo)
- Pineapple juice with a dash of grenadine for added flair
- Crushed frozen raspberries or strawberries with lime juice and fresh mint
- Blended frozen blueberries with lemon juice
And if you don't or can't drink alcohol, sparkling grape juice, sparkling cider, or even ginger ale works just as well!

YUM!
Can someone tell me how to not get a headache from drinking champagne or wine??? I love both and hate that I get a headache from them.
I so get a headache too from drinking champagne, maybe take some tylenol before and after drinking
Make sure you drink lots of water. So have a glass of water available while you are drinking. Drink 1 for 1. It should help decrease the headache.
From my medical training, it is not safe to take Tylenol and drink alcohol. I was thinking some Motrin and I often drink water but not till after I have had a few...good idea to have with it. Maybe a big meal before too...hmmm... I'm so last minute with this stuff.
It"s good but, hits me soo darn hard. Everyone have a very safe and wonderful new year eve. take care tydomimommy
I used to get headaches too, but I make sure I drink plenty of water throughout the night and have a glass by my bed as well. I do not take any pain killers, etc. I don't like the combination and it just can't be healthy for you... my opinion. Add cranberry juice or pomegranite juice to the champagne. Not too much though, a few years back I drank way too much cranberry juice and I was hurting! :)
