1/2

1/2
Champagne
(Use a large sized goblet.)
Ingredient: Champagne
Also Known As: Sparkling wine What it is: WineSparkling wine produced by inducing the in-bottle secondary fermentation of the wine to effect carbonation. It is produced exclusively within the Champagne region of France.
Stir up with a spoon slowly, and you have what is called Champagne Velvet, because it will make you feel within a short time as fine as silk.
It is rather an expensive drink, but a good one.
