*Some great choices for inexpensive sparkling wine are dry Spanish Cavas like Freixenet, Cristalino, and Segura Vidas.  Another alternative are Italian Proseccos which are slightly sweeter in flavor such as Lunetta, Zonin, Villa Jolanda, and Col Vetoraze.  All of these options are reasonably priced and would be perfect for blending that Valentine's Day cocktail!
