Fodder for Holiday Party Small Talk



Running out of small talk at this year’s holiday parties? Arm yourself with a clever fact about that glass of bubbly you’re carrying around. According to the people in the know at wineinstitute.org, there are approximately 44 million bubbles in a single bottle of sparkling wine or Champagne.

 

Champagne flutes are also made with small notches or “rough glass” inside the bottom to produce even more bubbles. Pouring correctly also guarantees maximum bubbles. The key is to tilt the glass to its side so the champagne will hit the side of the glass. Reducing the speed at which the champagne hits the base of the glass helps maintain the bubbly texture.

 

Happy holidays from everyone at Brown Miller Communications!
