I’m always on the hunt for simple, tasty drinks that look impressive—even when I’m in a rush. The Eerie Elderflower Fizz is my go-to, whether I’m hosting a party or just winding down at home.
You only need three ingredients for this cocktail, and it’s honestly a breeze to make. Somehow, it still manages to look and taste like something special.
The light floral flavor pairs perfectly with the bubbles, making every sip fun and refreshing. If you want something that feels fancy but doesn’t eat up your evening, you’ll probably love this recipe as much as I do.
Eerie Elderflower Fizz Cocktail Recipe (3-Ingredient Only)
The drink is basically three ingredients, but it’s the little details—like fresh garnishes and the right glass—that make it pop. I like serving this bubbly elderflower spritz at summer get-togethers or even just on a chill night in.
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker or a mixing glass for blending
- Jigger for measuring
- Strainer for pouring without ice shards
- Tall wine glass or highball glass to show off those bubbles
- Bar spoon for gentle stirring
- Ice cubes to keep things cold
- Citrus peeler if I’m adding a lime twist
- Small plate for rimming the glass with syrup or sugar (if I’m feeling extra)
Having these tools on hand makes mixing up the drink super simple, and the presentation always looks sharp.
Ingredients
- 2 oz St-Germain elderflower liqueur (or any elderflower liqueur)
- 4 oz chilled Prosecco (or another dry sparkling wine)
- 2 oz chilled club soda or sparkling water (soda water is fine too)
Optional garnishes:
- Fresh mint leaves
- Lime slices or wedges
- Extra ice cubes if you want it really cold
I like the gentle sweetness from the elderflower liqueur balanced with the lively bubbles of cold Prosecco. The sparkling water lightens everything up, but sometimes I’ll use club soda for that extra fizz.
Fresh mint and lime add a nice aroma, and I think they just make the drink look prettier.
Instructions
- Fill a tall glass with lots of ice.
- Pour in the St-Germain elderflower liqueur.
- Slowly top with chilled Prosecco to keep the bubbles alive.
- Add club soda, sparkling water, or soda water to fill the glass.
- Stir gently with a bar spoon—don’t go wild, you want to keep the fizz.
- Garnish with mint and a lime slice if you’re feeling fancy. Serve right away.
I try not to over-stir, since the fizz is half the fun of this cocktail.
Notes
This 3-ingredient cocktail is super easy to tweak. Sometimes I’ll add a splash of simple syrup or swap in elderflower syrup instead of liqueur for a lighter, low-alcohol version.
Chilling everything ahead of time keeps the drink crisp and bubbly, which is key. Prosecco gives a dry finish, but honestly, any sparkling wine will do if that’s what you have on hand.
Switching between club soda and sparkling water changes up the texture a bit. I always reach for fresh ice and mint to keep things refreshing.
Lime garnish brings just the right touch of tartness to balance out the floral notes.

When I take a sip of the Eerie Elderflower Fizz, the first thing I notice is how light and crisp it is. The bubbles from the soda make it extra refreshing—honestly, it’s made for summer.
The elderflower brings a gentle, floral sweetness that stands out without being overpowering. It’s subtle, so the drink never feels heavy or too sugary.
I catch a little fruitiness in the background, which I really like.
