I was going to buy some pills from a guy who claimed they would keep you from aging but he got arrested for selling bogus pills before I could buy them. I found out the guy had been arrested for the same thing in 1905 and 1840.
Prosecco is a nice alternative and most people like it. Champagne comes in dry drier and dust (brut levels) which is why I avoid it. Had it at a wedding I went to and it was a big hit. Asti spumanti is also nice. Not what you asked for but maybe food for thought.
