“SPARKLING: Champagne and Sparkling Cocktails for Any Occasion”
Out Now!
Redefine celebration with cocktails that will make any occasion sparkle.
Champagne and sparkling wine are the liquid symbols of celebration, good cheer and conviviality. But they can also be the stars of mixed drinks.
In my second cocktail book, I gather classic sparkling wine cocktail recipes as well as some dashing new entrants, blend them with lush photography and sprinkle in a dash of history.
Master a French 75 or take a chance at viral sensation, the Sbagliato. Dive into memorably-titled concoctions like the Group Text (a crowd-pleasing punch made with whiskey and apple cider), Glamazonian Airways (a RuPaul’s Drag Race-inspired blend of rum, sorel liqueur, cardamom syrup, and bubbles), or the Vice Versa (a decadent swirl of gin and grapefruit flavors, capped with a frothy crown).
Featuring original recipes by the world’s top bartenders from Momofuku, Temple Bar, Dante, Dear Irving, Death & co and others, this book comes to life under the creative direction of photographer Robert Bredvad, food stylist Mallory Lance and prop stylist Maeve Sheridan, the same creative dream team behind “Zero Proof”’s signature elegance.
Published by Union Square & Co. on May 7, 2024. Now available at Barnes & Noble and Amazon, and wherever fine books are sold.

Mother’s Day is deceivingly simple: No matter what you do, nothing compares with what she’s already given you, but she’ll still adore it. There is always a way to elevate the day and make it more special: breaking out the nice china (and offering to wash it), making dinner yourself, popping open a bottle of bubbles or mixing up an elegant cocktail.
Imbibe
In Sparkling: Champagne and Sparkling Cocktails for Any Occasion, author Elva Ramirez showcases sparkling wine in a variety of classic and original cocktails.
For summer parties, she put together this Lambrusco punch, using strawberry and grenadine to enhance the fruitiness of the wine and round out its tannic edges.

“Given our contemporary interest in mixology as well as the long history of the sparkling wine cocktail, it makes sense that the effervescent cocktail is overdue for a moment in the spotlight.”
Well distilled words of wisdom from drinks author Elva Ramirez’s beautiful new book Sparkling: Champagne and Sparkling Cocktails for Any Occasion, new out from Union Square & Co., which is making our summer sensational.
Epicurious
Spritzes and French 75s aren’t the only bubbly cocktails around, and Ramirez offers proof in this beautifully photographed volume, which comes out in May.
Try mixing your fizz with gin, lemon juice, orgeat, and the water that burrata comes packaged in, the way they’ve served it at New York’s Dante. Or combine rum, lemon juice, Peychaud’s bitters, and raspberry syrup with sparkling rosé.
