Christmas Cranberry Champagne Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup champagne, sparkling wine, or Prosecco
- 1-2 oz cranberry juice (I like cranberry-pomegranate for this recipe!)
- 8-10 cranberries, frozen
- lime, quartered
- peppermint, cranberry or regular cocktail sugar
- rosemary, for garnish
- edible glitter stars, for garnish
How to Make Christmas Cranberry Champagne?
- Rim a champagne flute or wine glass with lime and sugar. We love the peppermint cocktail sugar but you can find lots of other flavors or use regular sugar too!
- Add frozen cranberries and cranberry juice. For a festive holiday drink, we like to use the cranberry-pomegranate juice. There’s lots of variations of cranberry juice you can choose your favorite or stick with regular cranberry.
- Top off the glass with champagne.
- Sprinkle the edible star glitter on top of the cranberries. Reassure your guests that yes, they are edible!
- Add a sprig of rosemary for garnish
- Cheers and enjoy!

Tips, Suggestions and Alterations:
- Make sure to freeze your cranberries! This helps keep your drink chilled, you can also chill your champagne flutes for an added chill.
- Depending on your taste preference, you can go half and half with the champagne and cranberry juice, but we like to do just a splash of cranberry 😉
