Pro Tips
Both tequila and champagne can have high price points. Go all out and buy top-shelf versions of both or pick one to splurge on. Don’t forget to garnish. Rim the glass with homemade margarita salt/sugar and garnish with a lime. Pick a bottle of balanced champagne, rather than one that is too sweet or too dry.
Delicious Variations
Go Pink – Pink is a lot of fun for a bridal shower or festive girls night out. Swap out the traditional champagne for pink champagne for a lovely twist. Try Vodka – No tequila on hand? No problem. Use vodka instead. Add Orange Juice – If you don’t have Triple Sec available, you can use fresh orange juice instead.
Storage
Champagne starts to go flat pretty quickly. I wouldn’t recommend making these cocktails in advance or trying to store any leftovers.
