I saw the headline of this post and my mouth started to water. I loved champagne (or course chardonnay too). I could drink and drink and drink champagne to my hearts content. The buzz was so short lived, so I had to keep guzzling the bubbly. Ok I digress...
As others suggested here, find a favorite non-alcoholic drink while others are indulging. If you feel it's too difficult to be around champagne, then stay away from people and events until you feel strong enough to be around it.
