Under the African sun with the House of BNG Bubbly Cocktails

by | Dec 19, 2019 | Lifestyle

Get ready to pop some bottles. New Year’s Eve is on the horizon and there’s no better time to stock up on bubbly. Sure, drinking champagne on its own is always a good idea, especially during the South African summer, but these delicious cocktails add an even more festive element to the holiday celebrations.

The House of BNG Brut and Rose’ are perfect for cocktails in that they are not overly sweet at all, made in the traditional MCC Champagne process. They make a great base for bubbly cocktails. These are our favourites this year going into 2020…the perfect thirst quencher by the pool, party or lunch. 

They are incredibly easy to prepare and taste delicious…prepare individually or mix up a batch into a glass jug. It’s an easy win with high taste impact.
