I can’t believe that it’s almost New Year’s Eve! I’ve been working on some fun and festive cocktails that use either champagne or sparkling wine to help ring in the new year.

We have been on a bit of a champagne kick so I’m sure I’ll have a glass or two of plain champagne but it’s fun to have a champagne cocktail when you’re celebrating. Last year I celebrated with a Pomegranate Orange Champagne Cocktail. Another year we had the Blue Sparkling Star Cocktail. This year I’ll be celebrating with an Apple Pie Champagne Cocktail.

What’s the difference between champagne and sparkling wine?

Champagne and sparkling wine are both bubbly wines but the main difference is where they’re made. Champagne is sparkling wine produced in the Champagne region of France using specific grapes and production methods. Sparkling wine is the broader term for bubbly wines made anywhere else in the world. Popular ones include Prosecco from Italy or Cava from Spain. For most cocktails, you can easily substitute a good sparkling wine for Champagne.

This is a super easy recipe which makes it perfect for serving at a party. I simply mixed together equal parts of apple pie vodka and orange liqueur, poured them into a glass, and filled it with champagne. I added a pinch of cinnamon on top and rimmed the glass with red sugar, but the cocktail would be delicious without it as well.

Ingredients:

apple pie vodka
orange liqueur
champagne or sparkling wine

The flavor of this cocktail made me think of fall. It was warm, had flavors of apple and cinnamon, and was bubbly and so much fun.

At a party you can rim a bunch of champagne flutes with red sanding sugar and line up beside a bucket of ice that is chilling the three ingredients for this cocktail.

Add a glass of cinnamon sticks, red hot cinnamon apples, or sprigs of mint for garnish on the side. You can even add in some red or green edible glitter to make this cocktail really sparkle.

I like this cocktail a lot because it isn’t very sweet. I find cocktails to often be really sweet which isn’t for me. This one just adds a lot of apple and cinnamon flavor making it taste like you are drinking a spiced apple pie. It’s delicious and it’s pretty too!
