Mimosa

This is probably one of the most well-known cocktails, and 'the' most well-known for champagne-based cocktail.

I guess this is the sunday brunch kind of cocktail.

Half OJ
Half Champagne.

Due to its reputation for brunch drink, some said, champagne is the alcohol, than can be consumed at any time of the day, any time of the week, any time of the year. Well, that's perfectly understandable, as drinking beer on early sunday morning sounds alcoholic, but drinking mimosa at the time doesn't.

However, for me, champagne is something that isn't easily accessible. It's probably because I don't have many to celebrate in my life. So, here it is. The most common, but not to be met in a short time cocktail. (It wasn't that good, anyways. Really.)

Ritz Fizz

Once I opened the champagne, I couldn't resist the urge of making the cocktails with champagne.
This is one I couldn't imagine the result beforehand, but it turned out quite well.
Though the recipe has all the merit;; of my hated recipe - being terribly inaccurate - I followed it through, and voila, pretty good.

Quite complicated flavor amalgamated in one drink.
Pleasure finding.

Champagne Blitz

4 oz Champagne
3/4 oz White creme de menthe

Well, what else to say, it tastes like the mint added champagne.
No better, no worse.
