July 4th weekend is here and it's time to celebrate!  These two festive and fun sparkling cocktails are a perfect way to sparkle up any bbq or picnic.  

Either champagne or sparkling wine is refreshing but if you haven't tried a lot of sparkling wines you are missing out and should give it a try!  For sparkling wine, i love Gloria Ferrer Brut from Sonoma, I had my wedding reception there and it is a delicious wine.  I also love Roederer Estate Brut, from the Anderson Valley, it is crisp, and refreshing and a lovely wine.   Cheers!
