The Best Drink to Pair with Any Dinner

Don’t bother ordering a sugary specialty cocktail tonight when you’re out at dinner. Just order this…

Champagne!

Yes, it’s a little known fact that champagne is one of the most versatile pairing drinks when it comes to enhancing the flavor of your food. After all, when you’re out to a nice dinner, the drinks ought to compliment the food as much as possible.

Champagne works well because the bubbles from the carbonation open your palate and the slight citrus notes from the grapes compliment a wide range of food flavors. If you’re having fish, red meat or pasta, champagne will pair wonderfully. Also, during the summer months, the crisp taste will quench your thirst more so than other alcohols.

Stay away from heavy beers or straight liquor until after dinner, as they will bruise your palate and effect the way you’re experiencing the complexities in the flavor of your dishes. Once it’s time for dessert, enjoy a nice cognac or scotch to seal the meal and soothe your stomach.

Sparkling Rosé, Prosecco and Sparkling Wine will all work just fine too.
