Pink Champagne Jelly

IMG_7405The perfect way to wow your guests. Loaded with juicy berries, this is an absolutely stunning and light dessert. You will serve these chilled like you would serve a sorbet, only these MOET champagne jellies are so much better. Almost royal.  It’s in the name actually. Moet Rose Imperial is the best bubbly for the job.

When I first met my husband, he used to live in Greece. And every time he came to visit me, he used to bring with him a MOET Rose champagne for us to celebrate our reunion. That’s how I fell in love with …well… both. I just love this bubbly joy of pink colour and sophisticated taste. And this elegant dessert is the perfect ending to any meal and a celebration of life!
