Love Champagne but not the alcohol? Non-Alcoholic Champagne (or SHAMpagne as I call it) is the answer! Just 2 ingredients it will satisfy your sparkling wine craving and everyone can have a glass.

Two tall glasses of champagne are garnished with fresh raspberries. Additional raspberries are scattered on a light gray surface around the glasses, creating a refreshing and elegant scene.

Champagne, or Sparkling Wine, is delicious but if you’re trying to avoid alcohol, or have kids who want to be a part of the celebration, non-alcoholic champagne is the way to go. It’s easy to make with just 2 ingredients, the flavor tastes so much like the original – and everyone can enjoy it. It’s the perfect champagne alternative without using zero proof or alcohol-free sparkling wine. Serve this at special occasions and do cheers or make a toast the guilt-free way. You can also use this recipe to make a Virgin Kir Royale or Virgin Mimosa (regular or strawberry) or a Baby Bellini!

A green bottle of ginger ale and a clear bottle of white grape juice stand side by side on a gray countertop, with a white tiled wall in the background.

Ingredients needed

White Grape Juice – this gives that grape flavor you expect from wine. You could also add some apple notes by using a bit of apple juice. White grapes are best because champagne is a pale yellow color (dark grape juice would not look right).
Ginger Ale – this gives the bubbles you expect plus a little extra tangy flavor. You want your non-alcoholic sparkling wine to have that same flavor and ginger ale is what helps with that.

A hand pours a light-colored liquid into a tall, empty glass on a gray surface. Fresh raspberries are scattered around the glass, adding a pop of red color to the scene.
