It has been ages since my last post. The main reason I haven't posted is because I have been feeling uninspired. Rather than write some bullsh*t post about nothing (remember Carrie and the perfect french fry?), I thought it was better just to take a short sabbatical. I would love to be one of those bloggers that can post five times a week. But that just isn't realistic for me. So I am going to take the pressure off myself and post when I have inspiration. No schedule. No agenda. Just when I want to. Sounds lovely, right?
Anyway, speaking of inspiration, an ice, cold glass of bubbly usually helps my creative juices start flowing. During the summer, sparkling rosé was my go-to cocktail. But, nothing ruins your bubbly experience faster than when your fizzy beverage is warm. I like it ICE COLD. Too many times you will see champs getting iced down in just a bucket with some cubes. Wrong. All wrong! Never fear my loyal readers, I am here to save you from lukewarm champs and ensure that your bubbles are always cold and happy.

First, grab a bottle of your favorite bubbly and an ice bucket. |

Next, place your bottle in the bucket and fill it to the brim with ice. |

Wrap the neck in a "sweater". It's cold in there! |

After about 20 minutes your bottle should be properly chilled. Pour in a glass and enjoy! |
On a side note, lately I have preferred drinking all of my bubbles from large wine glasses rather than traditional flutes. How do you drink your champs?
Happy Chilling!
