What would a New Years Eve party be without Champagne?!?! There’s nothing more satisfying than popping those bottles and pouring that bubbly to toast the New Year so that’s an obvious necessity!!! I also like to buy an extra bottle for mimosa’s the next morning, they pair perfectly with New Years Day brunch aaaaand they also make for a fantastic hair of the dog … LOL!!!!

And how about a standing ovation for the simple and elegant idea below?!?! … All you do is fill up a champagne flute with your favourite bubbles and then add a rock candy swivel stick!!!! How easy and cool is that?!?!

Any mock tail ideas for this preggo momma? I will be sipping on sparkling grape juice I suppose! 🙂
You can make sparkling water sooo delish by adding some of your fave fresh squeezed juice and sliced fruit!!! Add fresh mint for a pop of freshness as well!!! XOXO
