The phenomenon of "leftover Champagne" might be rare—but if it were to happen at all, it would happen today. Don't let it go to waste! Your Champagne, Cava, Prosecco, or other bubbly will all be welcome anywhere you'd use white wine (especially if it's dry):

Not a concept I understand ... there is never left over champagne if I'm around (or cava, prosecco, crémant.....). I've been thinking about making a Delia recipe for champagne jellies for years, but it never happens because there are never left overs!
