BUCK'S FIZZ - CHAMPAGNE AND ORANGE COCKTAIL



Buck's Fizz - Champagne and Orange Cocktail image

A Traditional celebration drink in our house, served on Christmas Morning, Birthdays, Anniversaries and almost all other "excuses" for a "knees up"!! We do use Champagne, but if this seems just too sybaritic & over indulgent, you can use any good quality "Fizz". Freshly squeezed orange juice is de rigeur, but again, you can get great "fresh-tasting" orange juices in bottles & cartons too.......but please, NO ice & unsweetened is best!

Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

500ml pot double cream
300g dark chocolate , broken into chunks
zest 2 oranges , plus 100ml juice (and a splash extra)
2 tbsp icing sugar , sifted
a few sachets sherbet
200ml whipping cream
50ml prosecco , Cava or Champagne
2 tbsp icing sugar , sifted

  • Evenly pour the chocolate between your frosted pots, glasses or jars, and chill for at least 2 hrs, or up to 48 hrs.
  • Beat the whipping cream, Prosecco and icing sugar until thick, then add a dollop to the top of each pot. Sprinkle on a little more sherbet just before serving.

  • Sparkling wine is the traditional choice for Bucks Fizz, but you can also use Prosecco, Cava, or another sparkling white wine.
  • To make a non-alcoholic Bucks Fizz, simply omit the sparkling wine and replace it with more orange juice or sparkling water.
  • Bucks Fizz can be served as an aperitif, a brunch drink, or a cocktail. It's also a great way to celebrate a special occasion.
