Champagne is recognized as the universal symbol of good news, and this cocktail's simple recipe shows that life doesn't have to be complicated to be enjoyed. A classic Champagne Cocktail may not be as trendy a drink these days, but as a classic, it’s as good as when Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr sipped it in An Affair To Remember.
Recipe: Six ounces of champagne and a sugar cube soaked in Angostura bitters is all it takes to make a sophisticated cocktail for the New Year. Drop the sugar cube into a tall flute glass, slowly adding champagne and a lemon twist.
Tips: With the Champagne Cocktail, you can trust the bitters to take the edge off lesser quality champagne or sparkling wine. You can use a lesser expensive wine for this drink, spending about $10 to $18 for a good domestic bottle. Or, as I personally prefer to use a good Prosecco. Especially good for making a Venetian Sgroppino
It is often remarked that Auld Lang Syne is one of the most popular songs that nobody knows the lyrics to. "Auld Lang Syne" literally translates as "old long since" and means "times gone by."
