Description
A refreshing raspberry prosecco cocktail perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup fresh raspberries (or frozen)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup water
- 4 oz chilled prosecco (dry or brut works best)
- 1 oz raspberry simple syrup (or more to taste)
- ½ oz fresh lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
- Fresh raspberries or a lemon twist (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and water.
- Bring to a low simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and berries begin to break down (about 5–7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a jar, pressing gently to extract all the liquid.
- Chill until cold. (You can make this up to a week ahead and store it in the fridge.)
- Add 1 oz raspberry simple syrup to a champagne flute or coupe glass.
- Add ½ oz lemon juice, if using.
- Slowly top with 4 oz chilled prosecco — pour gently to avoid overflow.
- Garnish with a few fresh raspberries dropped in or a twist of lemon peel on the rim.
Notes
- This cocktail can be made ahead of time.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less raspberry simple syrup.
