1 pkg. frozen strawberries (the kind with syrup)
1 fifth brandy
2 fifths dry white wine
4 to 6 oz. Triple Sec or Cointreau
4 to 6 dashes of bitters
2 bottles Club Soda
1 bottle champagne

Marinate strawberries in brandy 2 to 3 hours. Pour over ice (plenty of ice). Add wine, Triple Sec and bitters; mix well and let stand a short while.

Just before serving, add soda; taste to adjust Triple Sec or bitters. Add champagne (with a flourish) and serve.

Remember to prepare marinating strawberries in advance for making additional punch. Garnish with fresh strawberries for fancy.
