Crushing ice with a mallet is wonderful! There's something quite powerful about the feeling when those large ice cubes get crushed, and you're left almost with snow.
Using that crushed ice in a Champagne Cobbler is perfect. It is a super simple cocktail, yet a good way of turning sparkling wine even more exciting and exquisite.
Orange liqueur is something we've always enjoyed. In this recipe only a tiny amount is used, however you can still really taste it - and it adds a nice base flavour to this cocktail.
