Have you ever heard that you need to place a small spoon in a cava bottle\u2019s neck to prevent the bubbles from escaping from the wine?<\/strong> Unfortunately, this trick does not work. Even the French Comit\u00e9 Interprofessionel du Vin de Champagne has studied the myth and thoroughly debunked it.<\/span><\/p>\n The bubbles are a major part of the appeal of sparkling wine. What\u2019s more, there is a long and costly process that goes into getting bubbles into wine, which becomes pointless if they are easily lost or escape before they can be enjoyed.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The escape of the bubbles can be reduced by the use of air-tight closures, but not through the use of a small spoon. The French committee\u2019s investigations showed that is equivalent to just leaving a bottle open.<\/span><\/p>\n In our online shop you will find <\/span>special bottle closures <\/span><\/a>so that the wine\u2019s fizz won\u2019t fall flat. Of course, if you don\u2019t have the utensil, you could just \u00a0drink the whole bottle dry!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Whatever you do, don\u2019t try to recarbonate the wine with a soda stream. There are several hilarious #fail videos on YouTube which show that process going badly wrong, as those systems just aren\u2019t designed for something even as thick as wine. But it would be a shame to let it all that good vino go to waste. So, here\u2019s some inspiration for using leftover cava:<\/span><\/p>\n Add stronger alcohol to it to preserve the wine.<\/b> The extra alcohol will kill the development of bacteria which creates the foul taste, and if you choose something tasty, you\u2019ll have a cocktail in storage for use at a moment\u2019s notice. \u2018Ambrosia\u2019 or \u2018Arise my Love\u2019 would be good recipes to try.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Are you a bubbly lover?
