Preparation
- 1
Chill the Glasses
Start by chilling two champagne flutes in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes. This helps keep the drink cool.

Pour the Guinness
Carefully pour the Guinness stout into one of the chilled champagne flutes, filling it halfway. Do this slowly to prevent excessive foaming.

Add the Champagne
Next, slowly pour the champagne or sparkling wine over the back of a spoon into the glass with Guinness. This will help keep the layers separate, creating a beautiful visual effect.
