The FAQ of Prosecco Cocktails

Hesitant? Nervous? Excited? Have plenty of questions? We have plenty of answers.

What Liquors Go Well With a Prosecco Cocktail?

Clear spirits, such as gin, vodka, or tequila, go best with prosecco. This also applies to liqueurs too, such as elderflower liqueur, orange liqueur, or limoncello. Consider a few of the flavors below when considering not only which liquors but also simple syrups or mixers to use.

What Flavors Go Well With Prosecco?

Prosecco pairs beautifully with so many flavors! Think blackberries, cherries, cranberries, lemon, lime, mint, raspberries, and strawberries. Almonds, hazelnuts, apples, pears, oranges, and rosemary are also excellent flavors. This list is by no means exhaustive, but is an excellent place to start on your prosecco cocktail exploration.

Should I Use a Champagne Flute or Coupe Glass for My Cocktail?

A flute is best when the prosecco is the star and you're only using a splash of other ingredients, or if your cocktail is quite boozy so you want a smaller serving size. A coupe adds an aromatic level to the cocktail, with all the more bubbles to tickle your nose.

Prosecco Cocktails That'll Make You Bubble Over With Joy

The greatest joy in life is opening a bottle of prosecco. It doesn't matter if it's a single-serving split or a full-size bottle. There's something so infectious about that sound. While no one can tell you how to use your prosecco, maybe text a few friends that you're opening a bottle and you don't have any intention of letting it go flat, so they should stop over to enjoy a cocktail or two.
