Tips or substitutions

Want a lower-sugar option? Opt for a dry prosecco and dial down the Campari to keep the sweetness in check.
For a gluten-free version**, simply check that your prosecco is gluten-free. Easy peasy!
Curious for a non-alcoholic twist? **Swap out the Campari for a bitter herbal drink or a dash of non-alcoholic aperitif; you’ll still get that signature kick.
