Champagne (like some other sparkling wines) is a great, admirable drink. Thank you, GOD, for such thing as Champagne!
Now we are about to imbibe two great sparkling cocktails – Death in the afternoon (for
boys) and Mimosa (for girls).
Death in the Afternoon
30 ml pastis (Pernod)
Fill glass with well-chilled champagne.
Champagne glass.
Mimosa
10 ml orange liqueur (like Cointreau or, better, Grand Marnier, but I’ve used Naranjas by Teichenne)
Fill glass on half with fresh pressed orange juice.
Fill glass with well-chilled champagne.

Admirable!
