Equipment

1 Champagne Flute
1 Juicer (for fresh orange juice)

Ingredients

▢ 2 cups fresh orange juice - for the best taste
▢ 2 cups sparkling wine - preferably dry champagne or prosecco
▢ Optional: 1 orange or peach slice - for garnish

Instructions

Start by juicing fresh oranges until you have 2 cups of orange juice.
In each Champagne flute, pour 1 part of the fresh orange juice.
Top it off with 1 part of the sparkling wine.
Garnish with an orange slice if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

For the best flavor, use freshly squeezed orange juice.

Variations can include other citrus juices, such as grapefruit or blood orange, for a unique twist.

Consider garnishing with a slice of orange or a sprig of mint for added visual appeal.

Use a dry sparkling wine for a more balanced cocktail, avoiding sweet varieties which may make the drink too sugary.
