Drink of the Day: Easy Champagne Cocktails

April 5, 2015 | By | Add a Comment

Happy Easter to all! Hope your Sunday is starting off well.

Not only is this day a huge celebration for Christians throughout the World, it is also a time where people look for the best brunches, where they can get a large assortment of food. Most are also looking for a place where Champagne cocktails will be involved. After the hour and a half sermon, this surely is a must-have for those who imbibe.

Just to change it up a little bit, I want to share three easy-to-make champagne drinks that help digest all the food most tend to pile up on to justify the expense of the buffet they have just invested in. A perfect digestif to put an exclamation point on a wonderful meal.

I wish you all good will and relaxation on this Easter Sunday. Cheers!
