Tasting Notes
When I take a sip of the Pineapple Prosecco Breeze, I first notice the bright and sweet taste of the pineapple juice. It’s refreshing and crisp, making each sip feel clean and light.
The bubbles from the Prosecco give a gentle fizz. This adds a lively mouthfeel that tingles on my tongue but doesn’t feel overwhelming.
Key flavors I notice:
- Pineapple:Â Sweet and tropical
- Prosecco:Â Dry, sparkling, and faintly fruity
- Citrus (if added):Â Adds a hint of tang
The finish is smooth. I sometimes sense a touch of floral notes from the Prosecco.
The cocktail isn’t too sweet or bitter, which I find makes it easy to drink.
The ice helps keep it cool, making it even more refreshing. I think the lightness and sparkle make it a nice choice for warm weather or casual gatherings.
Substitute
Sometimes I just don’t have every single ingredient for the Pineapple Prosecco Breeze. Here are a few easy swaps I’ve used when I’m in a pinch.
If I need to replace Prosecco:
- Sparkling white wine
- Club soda (for a non-alcoholic version, which honestly isn’t half bad)
When I am out of pineapple juice:
- Orange juice
- Mango juice
- Passion fruit juice
If I want a different flavor twist:
- Lime juice instead of lemon—sometimes I just go with whatever’s around
- Flavored seltzer for extra fizz, if I’m feeling fancy
Equipment:
- Cocktail shaker
- Strainer
- Measuring cup
- Wine glass or tumbler—no need to be picky
Ingredients:
- 3 oz substitute for Prosecco (pick one from above)
- 2 oz substitute for pineapple juice
- 0.5 oz citrus juice or whatever you have handy
- Ice
- Fresh fruit for garnish (totally optional, but it looks nice)
Instructions:
- Add all the liquids to a shaker with ice.
- Give it a good shake for about 10 seconds. Sometimes I count, sometimes I don’t.
- Strain into your glass of choice.
- If you want, top with a bit more of your Prosecco substitute.
- Garnish with some fresh fruit if you’ve got it around.
