Champagne Cocktails: 50 Cork-Popping Concoctions and Scintillating Sparklers.

Sparkling recipes to enliven any celebration, whether a fine wedding or a simple afternoon picnic



Champagne always adds class and spirit to an event, and when it’s mixed into cocktails, guests will be supremely impressed. For hosts looking to add sparkle and pizzazz to their wedding celebrations—or any outdoor festivities this spring and summer—award-winning cocktail writer A.J. Rathbun presents Champagne Cocktails: 50 Cork-Popping Concoctions and Scintillating Sparklers.

Champagne Cocktails features stylish, full-color photography that showcases the author’s bubbly, creative creations: lively, expertly crafted, and memorable recipes that threaten to steal the limelight from even the most regal wedding cake. The handy book also features Rathbun’s sage advice—bits of wisdom and know-how he’s gleaned from years of tasting, concocting, and writing about cocktails.

Recipes include classics like the Bellini, fruity originals like the Tropicaliana, international flavors like the Venetian Spritz, refreshing mixes like the Temporary Getaway, and sparkling beverages for a crowd like the Harvest Bowl.

Champagne is definitely celebratory, and perhaps even more so as it’s become less expensive and more accessible than it used to be. Now that it’s no longer reserved for extra-special occasions, champagne is more likely to be seen as a potential cocktail ingredient – one that can take an ordinary cocktail to the next level of festiveness. This title provides 50 delicious recipes framed by both A.J.’s trademark wit and fresh, contemporary photography. The result is a compelling impulse or add-on purchase for wine and cocktail enthusiasts–something that could be given along with a bottle of champagne.
