It's time to make Champagne a bigger part of your drinking life
KEVIN SINTUMUANG
Mr.Bubbles

A WHILE AGO, I MADE A DECISION: CHAMPAGNE WAS appropriate for breakfast.

Not every day. But on the weekends? Or for room service? Yes. Scrambled eggs with toast and bubbly, followed by a coffee to even things, is an easy way to choose happiness in the A.M.

This habit soon poured into other parts of my life. Sunsets on the beach. Bubble baths. And, eventually, on the couch with a bag of chips...just because it's Wednesday. There are some awesome things that you can have too much of. Butter. Drugs. The sun. Champagne is not one of these. Once you start weaving it into your drinking life, something clicks: I can have it this good all the time?
