Tips and Tricks for an Awesome Champagne Party
By Amy J. Martin
Champagne is that missing piece that every party should have. You don't have to open a champagne bottle only several times per year for New Year's Eve or a wedding. You can drink it every time you throw a party. It's not like you're going to buy the most expensive champagne at your supermarket. There are different sorts of champagne just for smaller occasions, like a simple party. In this article you'll find out how to cherish champagne at every party. First, we'll discuss about champagne brands and which suit best. Secondly, we'll talk about what to eat with champagne and finally, we'll write about making champagne mixtures.
Some champagne brands are more suitable for parties than other ones. You don't have to buy a pricey Heidsieck or Dom Perignon at each party, unless you have a rather luxurious lifestyle, but you can get a great champagne brand like Moet et Chandon at about $14 per bottle. For a regular party, purchasing 6-7 bottles will be enough. Pick different types of champagne. Choose Blanc de Blanc, which is quite popular; always pick a Rose and a Sec. How many bottles of champagne you're going to get of each sort is up to you to settle.
Get some food that goes well with sparkling wine. Homemade food would be perfect, only make sure to also bring some of the following: a good French cheese, fish (salmon would be perfect), oysters (eat them with Blanc de Blanc), and sweets, especially chocolate, fruits, muffins, cream cake and ice cream. If you want to get creative make some home-baked chocolate and for a touch of sophistication, bring some caviar. Moreover, you can get some Chinese food or turkey and chicken. Meat and pork aren't that great with champagne.
Self-serve bar. Put the foods close to the champagne, which should be inside the ice buckets. Start with seafood and a Medium-dry champagne and keep the Rose for the sweets. In between, you should prepare some cocktails. The bubbly taste of champagne is perfect for cocktails. Mix some juice with champagne and add some fresh fruit pulp for some delicious mixtures. Prepare a Bellini cocktail by mixing peach pulp (or juice) with champagne. If you want the traditional Bellini, use Prosecco. So if you're into traditional cocktails, have a bottle of Prosecco ready.
Throwing a champagne party is quite fun as long as you know what champagne brands are symbols of quality and still not very expensive.. You can have a very cute party with quality champagne without having to buy the most expensive champagne at your supermarket.
