What is good to add to Champagne?
Because of its bubbly consistency and typically subtle flavor, Champagne pairs well with most fruit juices. Add a splash of lime juice, lemon juice, orange juice, or grapefruit juice for a burst of citrus. (Add too much and you’ll wind up with a mimosa!)
You can also pair Champagne with any number of flavored liqueurs, like Chambord (raspberry), Cointreau (orange), or Midori (melon).
Ingredients like ice and chunks of fresh fruit are also a great idea to add to your Champagne. Better yet, freeze some fruit and mix it in to cool your Champagne without watering it down!

Popular Variations and Substitutions
- When it comes to mixed drinks like this, you may want to choose Prosecco over Champagne. The former is typically less expensive and performs the same duties as champagne in this cocktail, namely a somewhat dry white wine flavor and a nice, crisp bubbly finish. Other options for sparkling wines include Cava or American-made sparkling wines.
- If you’re unable to find lemon flavored vodka, another citrusy spirit may work instead. You could also use plain vodka and rely on the lemonade and lemon slices for lemony flavor, or else add some fresh lemon juice if you like your drink really lemony.
- For other garnishes, add some fun straws or drink umbrellas, a curl of lemon peel, or sprigs of fresh mint for a pop of color and refreshing, cool flavor.
- Use pink lemonade for a warmer-colored cocktail.
- Add some extra sweetness by adding some sugar to the rims of your glasses. Take a lemon wedge and run it along the edge, then dip in a plate of sugar. You can even create a lemon sugar by combining sugar with fresh lemon zest.
- Add your favorite varieties of fresh fruit to give your Champagne and lemonade cocktail an extra dimension of fruity flavor.
