The Champagne Cocktail is a classic drink made by placing a sugar cube soaked in bitters into a champagne flute and then adding chilled champagne. It is typically garnished with a lemon twist. The drink is simple but elegant and has been enjoyed for over a century. Some variations include adding a splash of cognac or a liqueur such as Grand Marnier. It is a popular drink for celebrations, weddings, and New Year’s Eve.
