🥂 Meet Blanco No. 5

At the heart of The Lucky Charm is our signature sparkling wine, Blanco No. 5.

Blanco No. 5 is brüt-style dry bubbly that is chic, silky, and classic. Its dry structure balances the sweetness of matcha, vanilla, and cream — keeping this cocktail from becoming overly heavy.

If you love sparkling wine in Indianapolis, this is your base.

🍵 Making the Sweet Matcha Base

For one cocktail, prepare:

3 tsp organic sweet matcha

¼ cup hot water

Whisk until fully dissolved.

We use organic matcha to bring natural color and earthy balance to the cocktail. While we typically avoid artificial coloring, achieving a vibrant green tone can be difficult. A single drop of green food coloring enhances the festive hue, while the organic matcha keeps the flavor grounded and balanced.

🍸 Drink Ingredients (1 Glass)

½ glass Blanco No. 5

2.5 oz organic sweet matcha mixture

1.5 oz heavy cream

1 oz vanilla syrup

1 drop green food coloring

✨ Directions

1. Prepare your sweet matcha mixture and allow it to cool slightly.

2. In a shaker with ice, combine matcha mixture, heavy cream, vanilla syrup, and one drop of green food coloring.

3. Shake until chilled and slightly frothy.

4. Pour into a prepared glass.

5. Top with Blanco No. 5.

   
   

🌈 Garnish Like a Lucky Pro

This is where the magic happens.

Rim your glass with vanilla frosting.

Separate Lucky Charms marshmallows from a box of cereal (yes, really).

Stick the marshmallows on the frosted rim, or on top of the whipped cream.

Top the cocktail with whipped cream.

The result? A sparkling, creamy, matcha-forward wine cocktail that is magically delicious.

For those looking for unique wine cocktails in Indianapolis, this one stands out — nostalgic, playful, and still rooted in quality wine.

🧠 NERD ALERT: Matcha + Bubbles

Matcha brings more than color. It adds subtle bitterness and earthiness that counterbalances sweetness from cream and vanilla.

When topped with sparkling wine, carbonation lifts aroma and texture. The bubbles from Blanco No. 5 lighten the richness of the cream and amplify the vanilla notes. The result is layered, balanced, and surprisingly refined.

Dessert meets dry sparkling wine.

Indianapolis wine lovers, this one’s for you.

🎉 Serve It With…

The Lucky Charm pairs beautifully with brunch in Indianapolis. Think waffles, a salty, savory panini, or a cheese board.

If you’re planning a St. Patrick’s Day outing in Indianapolis, this cocktail is perfect for celebrating with friends who love both sparkle and sweetness.
