While going out for New Year's Eve can be a lot of fun, it can also be expensive. And crowded. And noisy. In fact, sometimes ringing in the new year is best done in the quiet calm of your own turf. If quality time away from the chaos is what you're craving this year, why not try some quick-and-easy champagne cocktails? Perfect for intimate gatherings or solo celebrations, these recipes may call for some pricy alcohol, but it's well worth the money if it means toasting the arrival of 2015 at home.
