Our lovely Neighborhood Mom, Robyn has a new little addition to their family! A bunch of our friends got together and threw her a lovely baby shower with lots of yummy food, desserts, and presents! Because she has a baby girl, we did quite a few pink themed items, one of which is this Cotton Candy Champagne.
You Will Need:
Pink or Blue Cotton Candy
Champagne Glasses
Your favorite Champagne
Now you don’t need to get Cristal for this, just something yummy. I really like Barefoot’s Moscato Champagne. If you have anyone in the party who cannot have alcohol, you can substitute for Sparkling Cider. Display the glasses with a tuft of cotton candy in each one. We were Team Pink for this party, but obviously you can do blue cotton candy for a baby boy.
Pop the cork on your champagne. (Protip: use a towel on the top to catch the cork. No one wants to deal with a shattered light during a party!)
Pour the champagne or sparkling cider over the cotton candy for your guests. It will dissolve right away and turn the champagne into a cute pink or blue color while adding a touch of sweetness to the drink.

I have three sisters in law who are pregnant right now, so I will have to try this at the showers which will all be coming up this fall.
That is so neat! You could probably make one glass with sparkling cider for the mom-to-be. The rest of us gals will enjoy it with the real thing. 🙂
You sure can, or Sprite!
How cute! I you used blue cotton candy would that have dyed the champagne blue? That would be cute for a guessing game. Each person chooses either blue or pink depending on what they think the mama is going to have.
Yes it does! It would be really cute for a gender reveal, where everyone could “vote”!
I just love this idea – it’s just so much fun. I don’t know anyone pregnant at this time but I’ll keep it in mind.
That is such a pretty idea! I bet it tastes wonderful! Can’t wait to try this out!
What a yummy and adorable idea for any fun event or get together! Love this and will be trying it soon!
This is so fun. I have done it before, but the right champagne makes all the difference too. You used some fun stuff!
Oh what a fun idea! I don’t drink but I bet some sparkling cider would be delicious and just as fun!
I don’t drink alcohol but dang this sounds delicious. Especially with Moscato!

You can use Sparkling Cider or Sprite!
I am not a drinker, but I would absolutely use Ginger Ale or Club Soda to make these. They’d be great for New Year’s Eve!!
Yum! You totally grabbed my attention. I keep wanting to try this, and will have to find a good occasion for it. Maybe a girl’s night in?
I never would have thought to use cotton candy like that. Very creative! I love that you could tailor it to either gender.
That is super-creative. I don’t drink very often, but I bet that tastes delicious!!
That looks absolutely delish! I’ve never had champagne so not sure how it would taste but it does look and sound fabulous.
What a super fun idea, and I bet it tastes wonderful, too. I love how the color turns out.
Oh – I’ve seen this before. It’s such a cute idea! I don’t like the taste of champagne, but add cotton candy and I bet it’s delish!
What a fun idea! I’m tempted to not wait until a baby shower to try it, though.
Now that is one pairing I never would have thought of but it certainly looks like a lot of fun. Being French and a bit of a purest I don’t think I could put cotton candy in my champagne glass but I’m sure ginger ale or sparkling cider would be just fine! It looks so pretty 🙂
I’m not a huge fan of Champagne. Adding cotton candy, or anything sweet to it, would definitely make me like it though.
This is a great idea! Looks like a lot of fun!
