- Use a slender cocktail spoon to gently integrate the two liquids, ensuring a smooth and harmonious blend without disrupting the drink’s delicate bubbles.

- Choose a high-quality sparkling water or club soda with fine bubbles to mimic the effervescence of traditional champagne.
- Chill your glass beforehand to keep the mocktail cool and refreshing, enhancing the overall drinking experience.
- Experiment with alternative citrus garnishes like a twist of mandarin or blood orange for a unique presentation and subtle flavor variation.
