Twinkle Cocktail

Important tips

Choose the right kind of bubbly. Champagne vodka cocktails like the Twinkle are mostly made with a brut Champagne that has a dry profile. This helps to balance out the sweetness of the rest of the ingredients. However, if you and your guests prefer something a little sweeter, feel free to swap it out for a mid-range bubbly or something sweeter still. It all depends on what you like.  

Don’t try to add all the bubbly at once. When charging the glasses with Champagne, take your time. If you try to add it all at once you are likely to end up with a messy overflow. Instead, add an inch or so to the glass, wait a bit, and then fill it up once the foam from the first pour has settled.  

Keep the bubbles out of the shaker. Most cocktails call for all the ingredients to be added to the shaker so it’s well combined. However, this is also a very good way to lose the bubbles in your Champagne. So, make sure to follow the recipe steps, and only add it after the shaking has occurred.  

Did you know? The Twinkle is currently trending as a popular wedding party and bachelorette drink and can be adapted to suit the tastes of your guests quite easily—even your sober-curious squad will love it.  

When you’re planning a bachelorette party and you need a cocktail that caters to the non-drinkers in the bride’s crowd, simply switch up the Twinkle cocktail to create a mocktail by leaving out the vodka and subbing sparkling apple juice for Champagne.
