Raspberry Sparkling Wine or Champagne Cocktail

Ring in the new year with this raspberry champagne cocktail! You’ll love this cocktail that includes flavored liqueur and vodka. Cheers!

How do you feel about the new year? Are you going to miss last year . . . or are you ready to say “Bye Felicia” and move on as quickly as possible?

No matter which way you feel, I’ve got a champagne drink you’re going to love, with a special addition: tasty raspberry liqueur that adds the perfect flavor to this cocktail.

I’ve toasted the new year many times with a plain ol’ glass of champagne, but I’m one of those people ready to let this past year go bye-bye as quickly as possible so I think it’s time to do something different.

I’m really excited about the coming year, because I have a plan. And I know plans don’t always work out the way you think, but it feels good to have goals. I didn’t have them previously so I ended up feeling a little lost.

This champagne winter drink is for everyone, but it’s particularly for people like me who are ready for the new year to begin.

Who are hopeful for the possibilities.

Who acknowledge that 2020 kinda sucked and they are moving on.

Cheers and happy new year!

Raspberry Champagne Cocktail

Ingredients (one serving)

• 1 ounce of vodka
• 1 ounce of raspberry liqueur
• Champagne or sparkling wine, chilled
• Fresh raspberries for garnishing

I’m not the girl to ask about champagnes to use for this cocktail – I don’t have a sophisticated palette necessarily. So what I do is let the experts choose!

I love the list from Town & Country here. What I really love is that there is a $10 bottle of Mumm’s on the list. You can get fancy if you choose, but you can also buy a simply delicious and inexpensive brand to use in the cocktail.

Directions

To start, drop a couple of raspberries into the glasses. Pour the vodka into each glass.

Top it up with the sparkling wine/champagne, but leave some room for the raspberry liqueur.

Once the bubbles settle down, pour in the raspberry liqueur. If you have a swizzle stick, you can stir lightly.

ENJOY! Trust me, it’s going to be impossible not to. Get the printable cocktail recipe below!
