Ingredients
  

  • 0.75 cup pomegranate juice chilled
  • 3 tablespoons orange liqueur
  • 1 bottle (750 milliliters) brut Champagne chilled
  • 0.25 cup pomegranate arils

Equipment

  • 6 champagne flutes

Method
 

  1. Divide the pomegranate juice and orange liqueur evenly among 6 champagne flutes.
  2. Slowly top each flute with Champagne, pouring gently to preserve the bubbles.
  3. Add pomegranate arils to each glass.
  4. Serve immediately.

Notes

For the best bubbles, make sure the juice and Champagne are well chilled and pour the Champagne gently. Serve immediately; do not refrigerate assembled cocktails or freeze. Leftover pomegranate juice can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. For an alcohol-free variation, use nonalcoholic sparkling wine and orange syrup in place of the Champagne and orange liqueur.
