Chef's Tips
- Champagne Choice: Use a dry champagne (brut) for the best balance of sweetness.
- Sugar Substitute: If you don’t have a sugar cube, a teaspoon of simple syrup works too.
- Bitters Variation: Experiment with orange or lavender bitters for a unique twist.
- Chilling Tip: Ensure the champagne is well-chilled to keep the drink crisp and refreshing.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair with light appetizers like oysters or cheese for an elegant touch.
