If there is one thing that is a universal love of the patterned people, it’s Champagne and today we are celebrating the most glorious day of the year – World Champagne Day!
There is something rather grand about this classic cocktail – the bitters-soaked sugar cube creating a sweet, sour and bitter combination that adds a little drama as the sugar cube dissolves into the glass of bubbles. We’re loving this classic favourite as a pre-dinner aperitif or post-ceremony toasting cocktail served best in coupes or flutes of course!
