Why This Recipe Works

The magic of this mock champagne lies in its simplicity and accessibility. Apple juice provides the perfect golden champagne color and subtle sweetness, while ginger ale contributes the essential bubbles and a slight spicy note that mimics champagne’s complexity. Unlike hard-to-find sparkling apple ciders, these two ingredients are available at any grocery store, making this recipe both economical and convenient.

Perfect for Every Celebration

This non-alcoholic bubbly is ideal for inclusive celebrations where everyone can participate in toasting special moments. Baby showers become more festive when expectant mothers can enjoy a sophisticated-looking beverage, and children feel included in adult celebrations when they have their own “champagne” to raise.

Ingredients

  • Apple juice – Provides the golden champagne color and natural sweetness that mimics traditional champagne
  • Ginger ale – Contributes essential carbonation and subtle spice that adds complexity to the drink

You can use something like sparkling apple juice like Martinelli’s Sparkling Cider, in some larger towns you can find sparkling grape juice as well. For the rest of us, there is another technique you can try. You can combine ginger ale and apple juice for the perfect glass of bubbly. You can always find ginger ale and apple juice in the store. The apple juice gives this drink the perfect color.
