Steps

  1. 1
    Squeeze the oranges fresh and strain out the pulp. With only two ingredients there is nowhere for carton juice to hide.
  2. 2
    Chill both the juice and the wine thoroughly — warm juice kills the bubbles on contact.
  3. 3
    Chill the flute as well.
  4. 4
    Pour the orange juice into the flute first.
  5. 5
    Top slowly with the Champagne, pouring down the side of the glass. Adding the wine second preserves far more carbonation.
  6. 6
    Do not stir. Garnish with an orange twist and serve at once.
