How do you keep your bubbly Crisp and BRIGHT?
Do you want bubbles the next day?
Did you accidentally pop open a bottle of Champagne, and can't finish it? #poppinbottles #popit
It happens....sometimes when you're on a roll, at a party, a wedding, a birthday...etc.
Or have you ever looked around after your party, and
realize there's quite a few bottles that are still open?
What a pity, and a waste you think, while you're sipping on one of them. LOL
Then you remember that instagram or this blog, or an episode of Myth Busters!
Or you don't know about the spoon, what f'n spoon?!
What are you talking about? Yep, because no one ever told you, nor showed you the trick with the SPOON.
A SPOON!
Continuing....Bottomline good Champagne or Sparkles in general are not to be wasted.
So what do you do when everyone is leaving, or passed out? With everyone gone or asleep in various places of your house, and sunrise is imminent, one must act quickly to save the frothy from dying.
Slowly but surely you too, the life of the party, is starting to drift into sleepytown.....
Cork plugs are where? You realize you've already sent your mom and a friend home with a paper bag of goodies, and cork stopper bubbles.
Put a spoon in it! Yesssss! Put SPOONs in the bottles, toss in the fridge, bed. In a few hours, chase the dragon and it still going to be refreshing.
I do this with my White wines and Roses too.
I have no shame in preserving my preciousness.
It's just Science and old school.
My mom did this when I was young, of course I thought nothing of it. But, as an adult her old school ways are still the best tricks of the trade.
The Science behind it comes from the metal spoon,
put on like a cork or "neck of the bottle."
Cold air is just thick and dense. Think of the Fog in the morning...
Now if you live in San Francisco, or parts of Bourgogne (Burgundy)
especially Dijon or Semur-en Auxois it just sits after it rolls in and stays for awhile. So, basically the spoon gets cold, and stays cold. Colder than the plug you took out your drawer when you corked it with the stopper. Metal stays cool, and helps cool the air inside the bottle.....quicker. This prevents the bubbles from losing their lovely effervescence....fizzzzz, frizzante, le bolle, burbujas, les bulles.
The bubbles don't escape, stay fresh and "Good morning."
"Hello pain perdu!"
(French toast.)
Just like new! I have even used a fork to see if it could stand up to it's helpful partner. It worked, though I feel the spoon is best!
Another tip,with a sip:
This also works for soda and sparkling H2O in a bottle.

Use a Spoon in your bottle instead of an air lock cork, try something new.
If you already know about this, pass the myth on.
It works!
Experiment with friends....
Next day you wake up, and they're waking up too.
The smell your yummy breakfast cooking, impress them more.
Offer a fresh squeezed pamplemousse(grapefruit) mimosa, as you pour from the same bottle from the night before. Champagne sans le jus or mimosa who cares as it is still fizzy and refreshingly delicious.
Turn on some Jazz, (let's say Francoise Hardy) and let the festivities continue!
