Que’s Favorite Holiday Cocktail | Champagne and St. Germain

Happy Day Family!

I totally have to share my favorite holiday cocktail!  The most simple drink with the greatest flavor ever!  Its really nice and light!  I love dry champagne because it has the lowest carbs ever, it's not too sweet, and its nice and bubbly! My favorite champagne is Veuve Clicquot, but when you are balling on a budget, any dry champagne will do!  To take our celebration to the next level, I wanted to add a simple fruit like a raspberry, or a blueberry to the bottom of the flute, and to make it a more floral tasting and aromatic, I added St Germain, which is an elderflower liquor. Oh my gravy and mash potatoes!  When you taste this it's going to make your life so happy!
