A sparkling, floral cocktail combining crisp Prosecco, fragrant elderflower liqueur, and fresh lemon juice. This easy party drink is elegant, refreshing, and perfect for celebrations or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (750 ml) bottle Prosecco, well chilled
  • 12 oz (1.5 cups) elderflower liqueur (such as St-Germain)
  • 3 oz (6 tbsp) fresh lemon juice (about 2–3 lemons)
  • 6–12 oz club soda (optional, 1–2 oz per glass)
  • Lemon twists or wheels, for garnish
  • Fresh edible flowers (optional), for garnish
  • Fresh mint sprigs (optional), for garnish

Instructions

  1. Chill the Prosecco in the fridge for at least 2 hours (or 30 minutes in the freezer).
  2. Prepare garnishes: use a peeler or knife to make lemon twists; rinse and dry edible flowers or mint if using.
  3. Juice lemons to yield about 3 oz (90 ml); strain out seeds and pulp.
  4. Pour 2 oz (60 ml) elderflower liqueur into each champagne flute or glass.
  5. Add 0.5 oz (15 ml) fresh lemon juice to each glass.
  6. Slowly top each glass with 4-5 oz (120-150 ml) chilled Prosecco, pouring gently down the side.
  7. Stir gently with a long spoon or chopstick to combine.
  8. Add 1-2 oz (30-60 ml) club soda to each glass if desired for a lighter drink.
  9. Garnish with a lemon twist, edible flower, or mint sprig and serve immediately.

Notes

For best results, keep all ingredients and glassware cold. Pour Prosecco slowly to preserve bubbles. Fresh lemon juice is key for bright flavor. Garnish just before serving for best presentation. Easily adaptable for non-alcoholic, vegan, or gluten-free diets. If making a big batch, mix elderflower liqueur and lemon juice ahead, then add Prosecco and garnishes right before serving.
