Tasting Notes

Substitute

Can’t find tangerines or elderflower syrup? No problem. This cocktail can be made with other citrus fruits and floral syrups.

Orange juice works well in place of tangerine juice. Meanwhile, grapefruit juice adds a tart twist.

For the elderflower syrup, try rose syrup or lavender syrup instead. These will give a similar floral note.

Don’t have sparkling wine? Use club soda or tonic water for fizz. The drink won’t be as strong, but it will still taste good.

For a non-alcoholic version, skip the sparkling wine. Use more juice and soda water instead. You can also add a splash of non-alcoholic sparkling cider for extra flavor.

Here’s a quick substitution guide:

• Tangerine juice → Orange or grapefruit juice • Elderflower syrup → Rose or lavender syrup
• Sparkling wine → Club soda or tonic water • Garnish → Any citrus slice or edible flower

Try different combos to find your favorite. The basic recipe is easy to change up based on what you have on hand.
