- 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
- 1 cup papaya juice
- 2 ounces Grand Marnier liqueur
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 (750-ml) bottle good quality Brut sparkling wine or Champagne

In a blender or food processor, puree the strawberries. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a tall pitcher, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract the juice. Add the papaya juice, Grand Marnier, and sugar, and stir to dissolve the sugar. Refrigerate until well chilled. Add the sparkling wine to the pitcher and stir gently to mix. Pour into tall Champagne glasses and garnish each glass with a strawberry half. Serve immediately.

I used my juicer and juiced two papayas and two cups of strawberries for this recipe. I made it for Mother's Day brunch and it was a big hit even for those who usually don't drink champagne. The fruit flavors made this drink refreshing.
