Recently, as a fun way to unite all the guests at our half virtual and half in person bridal shower, we sent everyone invited a cocktail recipe in advance. I made it for my Zoom session that day and found it so delicious that I have been making it as my go to pool side cocktail all month.
I did make a few tweaks of the original recipe and will give you my quick version for a single cocktail. The biggest substitution is to use sparkling water or club soda instead of Prosecco. It’s not really practical to open a fresh bottle of expensive Prosecco every time you want to make a cocktail for one. Also, I regularly substitute gin for vodka depending what I am in the mood for. The frozen blackberries turn the drink a pretty shade of pink, but you could use frozen strawberries or raspberries if thats what you have.
Here’s how I make it:
Fill a glass with ice and then fill halfway with light lemonade. Add 1 ounce vodka (or gin) and fill remainder of glass with sparkling water (or Prosecco). Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Finish by adding a few frozen blackberries and a slice of lemon.
Enjoy!
Yum! I have a virtual bridal shower on my calendar tomorrow. I might just make this one!
ReplyDeleteIf you want to make in a pitcher, like I do sometimes, just increase everything in proportionally. It’s really pretty in a clear pitcher with a few sprigs of mint.
