Tips & Tricks

Adjust the sweetness**: For a lighter option, use a sugar-free elderflower cordial or reduce the amount of St. Germain to taste.
Herbal infusion**: Scatter a few mint leaves in the bottom of your glass before adding ice for an extra aromatic experience.
Gluten-free**: This cocktail is already gluten-free, making it a great choice for those with dietary restrictions. Just be sure to use gluten-free Prosecco, which is widely available.
