Instructions
- Chill all ingredients (champagne and juices) in the refrigerator at least 2 hours before the event.
- Rinse fresh berries and mint leaves, slice citrus into thin wheels or wedges, and arrange them neatly in small bowls.
- Arrange pitchers or dispensers with each juice in a row on a sturdy table. Place the champagne bucket or cooler nearby with ice and bottles ready to open.
- Position glasses at one end and garnishes at the other for easy guest access.
- Open champagne bottles just before guests arrive or are ready to pour, angling the bottle at about 45 degrees and twisting slowly to avoid spills.
- Guide guests to start with a glass, select a juice, then top with champagne. Encourage tasting different combinations.
- Refill pitchers and add ice to the bucket as needed to maintain serving temperature.
- Clean up spills promptly with towels and keep the station tidy.
Notes
Chill all ingredients well ahead to keep bubbles lively. Pour juice first filling glass halfway, then gently top with champagne to preserve bubbles. Provide non-alcoholic sparkling options for guests who prefer no alcohol. Garnishes add aroma and flavor. Keep juices and champagne chilled throughout the event. Avoid overfilling glasses to prevent spills.
