This week I’m sharing a cocktail recipe!  I was excited about this one because of the holidays coming up soon.  I kept saying I was going to work on a few signature drink recipes but this is the week I’m finally going to do it!

I’m a huge fan of champagne and sparkling wine so we often have some in the house. I also like to make cocktails from these sparkling beverages because they feel extra festive and fun.

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.

I’ve made several fun bubbly cocktails in the past including this easy Vodka Champagne Cocktail. I also have a tasty Pomegranate Orange Champagne Cocktail. In the fall this Apple Cider Mimosa can’t be beat. 

I knew I wanted to make another champagne cocktail and when I found a bottle of blue curacao I knew I had to make a Blue Sparkling Star Cocktail for the holidays.

This isn’t just any champagne cocktail…it’s a BLUE champagne cocktail!   How fun is that?   This Blue Sparkling Star Cocktail is fun, fruity, and delicious.   It combines orange vodka, blue curacao, and champagne.  It’s a really great combination of flavors.  

The rims of the glasses are dipped in blue sanding sugar which gives this cocktail a sparkle.   I served it with orange wedges on the rims but it would be really fun to cut up a star fruit to garnish it with.

A bottle of vodka, a bottle of champagn, a bottle of blue curacuo, and two champagne glasses.

Why you will love Blue Sparkling Star Cocktail:

  • The bright blue color is perfect for any festive occasion.
  • It takes just three main ingredients to make this cocktail. 
  • Champagne adds fun and festive bubbles to this cocktail. 
  • It’s easy to keep the ingredients chilled and allow guests to make their own. 

Ingredients:

  • orange vodka
  • blue curacao
  • champagne or sparkling wine

This cocktail was so fun and it tasted great!  The blue curacao adds a bit of sweetness while the champagne adds the bubbly.  The orange in the vodka really comes through.  

This is a sophisticated yet fun cocktail that’s great for a dinner party or a holiday meal.  Put an orange wedge or a slice of star fruit on the rim for some added fun.

  1. I love pretty blue cocktails 🙂 especially ones that sparkle! I really like that this doesn’t have added sugar. I’m not a huge fan of sweet drinks but I think this probably isn’t too sweet since there is only 1 oz of blue curaco, am I right about that? May have to try this one!
