He opened the bottle perfectly! Not easy with a cheap plastic cork.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Have the most of your champagne cocktails, and God bless us, every one!

calling it a 'bubbly' is cheap man's word. derived from middle class sluts who go outs partying at weekend thinking theyre more than theyre worth

[stupidelf]

make a black velvet instead.

half a champange glass of dark bear.

and half with champange or cheap champange.

it's amazing to see all the fucking comments are the fucking same, "this guy is a retard", "that's not the correct way to open a bottle of champagne", "too much in the glass", come on, it's all about serving drinks! you're bartenders, not doctors making surgery you dumb asses, besides, there are a fuckin' million ways to make the same shit drinks, congratulations if your drinks are the best, maybe someone will give you a good tip 2nite

i cant believe shes never opened a bottle of champagne before

and theyre making such a fuss over it

[Gribbles87]

man is this is how to to open a 'bottle of champagne' ???

[shrum333]

plastic...this is not even champagne.

and way too much in the glass...

[katyu16]

If you twist a "twist" first into the empty glass it'll coat the inside of the glass with lemon oil minimizing the foaming. Then soak cube like prev poster recommended with bev nap. Pour champagne. Then top with another twist or orange zest at the end. Btw, it foams much more and w/ thicker foam using 'real' champagne.

slcie of orange and a cherry is not an option. It's a champagne cocktail not a champagne sour.

[mickeybritton]

Agreed

[corkpopfrance]

SPARKLING WINE and Cheap-o at that. The word champagne should be deleted. Totally suburban crackers. Champagne is from the northeastern part of France. Everything else is a wannabee wine.

[webguide1]

THat is _not_ Champagne what a b class bartender. That is sparkling wine, the difference is HUGE from the real stuf! He should be sued.

[PikoParty]

he did SAY it was the cheapest thing he could get. not a lot of people get champagne for new years

[giannianselmo]

in this drink, cognac is the first ingredient to put in the glass, and the decoration? slice of orange and a cherry

[mickeybritton]

No, first you soak the sugar cube in bitters using a napkin on top of the glass.. This stops any excess bitters overpowering the drink. Then tip the cube in, the add the cognac no higher than the cube and then top up with CHAMPAGNE! Garnish is nothing other than a tiny bit of orange zest..

lool,

the cork has to "PLOP" so hard that it flew over the fence into the neighbors garden.

(don't take me too serious)
