A mixture of champagne or
ginger ale and ripple. It was first mentioned on the episode of Sanford and Son entitled "Fred & Carol and Fred & Donna" in which he says he has a mixture of
ginger ale and ripple. It was mentioned later in the episode "Superflyer" in which they decide to get champagne (not
ginger ale) because they are on a plane flying first class and Redd Foxx also wants some ripple to mix it with, saying they could call it "champipple."
