Notes
Making this cocktail is fun and can be customized easily. If you want a non-alcoholic version, swap Prosecco with sparkling water. The recipe can be doubled or halved depending on the occasion. Keep extra glasses in the fridge to avoid the rush when entertaining. Always serve cold for the best experience.
