Patsy and Edina rule the roost when it comes to knocking back the bubbly. So lock up your sons, grab a glass and pop your cork with these absolutely fabulous champagne sparklers.

Darling! After a hard day's shopping at Harvey Nicks, there's nothing like the sexy fizz of a champagne cocktail to get a girl back on her feet and ready for anything.

Break out the champers and get your smackers around these little sparklers. You can mix them yourselves - but they somehow taste better served by a handsome young barman...
