You don't need an occasion for champagne. Its something to enjoy whenever the mood strikes you.And when opening a bottle of champagne, the key is to preserve as much of the CO2 to keep it bubbly!

Steps to opening a bottle of champagne:

Remove the foil.
Always keep the cork pointed in a safe direction and keep one thumb on the cork.
Loosen the wire cage. There's really no need to take it off completely.
Grab the cork tightly and slowly twist the bottle and cork in opposite directions.
The cork should ease out of the bottle with a slight "poof" and not a loud "pop."

Serve in a tight flute and enjoy!
