A champagne float is a fun and boozy treat that’s a cross between a dessert and a cocktail. Made with just a few ingredients, this fun treat is deliciously simple to make! There are many different ways to to make your own champagne float and you can even use vanilla ice cream if you desire.

Ingredients for the Raspberry Rose Champagne Float

Just three ingredients for this fantastically fresh treat? Sign me up! Find out what I used to make the Raspberry Rose Champagne Float and if there are any additional substitutes you can exchange. 

• Raspberry sorbet: Refreshing and light, sorbet is such a fun element to this cocktail. Pick up your favorite brand like Häagen-Dazs or Talenti from your local grocery store. You can substitute sorbet for a fruity flavored ice cream. 
• Champagne: Pair the sorbet with something bubbly, I used champagne but feel free to substitute this for prosecco or sparkling rosé!
• Rose water: A few drops of food grade rose water adds the floral notes to this float. I used Cortas Rose Water. 
• Raspberries and dried rosebuds: Garnish this gorgeous cocktail with some gorgeous ingredients like fresh raspberries and dried rosebuds. You can order edible dried rose petals online here or from your local supermarket.

What Glassware Should I Use For a Float?

You’ll definitely want to pair this amazing and delicious float with some exciting glassware. For this recipe, I used the Bomshbee Chandelier Kalos glass. It’s one of my favorites from their collection, but to be honest it’s so hard to choose one because of how gorgeous and versatile all of Bomshbee’s glassware is! You can also serve a float in a wine glass, double old fashioned glass or champagne glass! Check out their exquisite collection of drinkware here. I love that you can utilize these pretty glasses for other purposes too. Use them for dips, dressings, and desserts!

Bomshbee’s glassware is perfect to use for a special occasion like Valentine’s Day or for your next dinner party. BTW Bombshebee’s glasses are dishwasher safe!
