An easy Christmas cocktail, Pomegranate Champagne Spritzer is the perfect cocktail for the holidays with its ruby red color, the tart flavor of pomegranate and lime juice and Champagne.

It is the most wonderful time of the year! I truly love everything about the holidays, and every year I promise myself that I am not going to overcommit and over-complicate. But, don’t we all agree? That is kind of what the holidays are all about. Here is one way to have your cake and eat it, too: a simple and intimate miniature dessert and champagne party will give you all the holiday cheer with so much less stress!

Korbel California Champagne is one of my favorite bottles to grab. It pairs perfectly with a variety of desserts, it is inexpensive, and you can find it almost anywhere! Another way to add a special touch to a dessert party is to create a signature cocktail that all of your guests can enjoy. This Pomegranate Champagne Spritzer is perfect for the holidays with its ruby red color, the tart flavor of pomegranate and lime juice, and Korbel California Champagne. And you can always offer soda water as an alternative to those who do not want to use champagne.

Creating A Miniature Dessert Party

In addition to selecting your champagne or cocktail of choice, creating a dessert menu that can be handmade or store bought will make you excited to open up your home and celebrate the season. To start, make sure you have a variety of flavors and textures: chocolate, nutty, sweet and tart. For a small intimate group, I choose three to four varieties of miniature desserts. Be ready to serve three to four desserts per person.

Miniature desserts make a beautiful presentation and make each guest feel extra special. Pairing miniature desserts like Cranberry Lime Tartlets, Chocolate Truffles, French Macarons, and Caramel Corn with Korbel California Champagne will make you feel like you are in a fancy restaurant but instead you are in the comfort of your own home!
