Frequently Asked Questions

Is prosecco the same as champagne?

Sparkling wine can only be called champagne if it was actually made in the French region of Champagne. Any other sparkling wine is usually made in the same tradition but called something different. Prosecco is typically what they call it when it’s made in Italy. Cava comes from Spain. They are pretty much interchangeable.

What is champagne good to mix with?

Champagne is a great base for all kinds of flavors. From fruity flavors like blackberry, oranges, and strawberry to floral flavors from St. Germain, it pairs well with a lot of liqueurs and syrups.

How do you store an open bottle of champagne?

Supposedly if you hang the neck of a metal spoon or fork into an open bottle of champagne and store it in the fridge, the bubbles will remain intact. I’ve not tried this. I prefer to use a champagne stopper which also keeps the fizz.

What is a good bottle to buy for these champagne cocktails?

While using sparkling wine is a cocktail ensures that you can use a bottle that isn’t super pricey, you always want to use something that you would like the flavor of when sipped on its own. A few reasonably priced options are La Marca, Mumm and I’m oddly obsessed with sparkling wines from New Mexico. Also, Trader Joe’s sparkling wines are inexpensive and delicious.
