Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces prosecco, chilled
  • 2 ounces limoncello, chilled (preferably in the freezer; use homemade or your favorite brand)
  • 1 ounce club soda, chilled
  • Lemon wheel, for garnish (optional)
  • Fresh mint sprig, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Glass: Fill a glass halfway with ice cubes to keep the cocktail refreshingly cold without diluting it quickly.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Pour in the chilled prosecco, followed by the chilled limoncello and club soda. Stir gently to blend the flavors while maintaining the bubbles.
  3. Garnish: Add a lemon wheel and a sprig of fresh mint as optional garnishes to enhance the visual appeal and add a subtle aromatic touch.

Notes

  • Use chilled ingredients to keep the drink cold and bubbly without needing to add too much ice that might dilute the flavor.
  • For a stronger lemon flavor, use homemade limoncello or a higher-quality artisanal brand.
  • The addition of club soda can be adjusted for more or less fizz according to your preference.
  • This cocktail is best served immediately after mixing to preserve the sparkling prosecco’s effervescence.
  • To make it alcohol-free, use sparkling white grape juice instead of prosecco and non-alcoholic limoncello or lemon syrup.
