Prosecco is known to be an incredibly popular alcoholic beverage in the UK, so it’s only fitting that National Prosecco Day (Saturday 13th August) is acknowledged. With its affordable price point coupled with its vibrant and crisp taste, it’s no surprise that more and more prosecco cocktails are being crafted and enjoyed.

Here is a collection of great prosecco cocktails that are sure to level up your cocktail game. The best part is that you can easily make them all with the VonHaus range of barware and cocktail sets.
Negroni Sbagliato

Renowned for its strong herbal flavour, the Negroni is a classic – but this one has a twist.

Invented in the 70s in Bar Basso, Milan, a barman accidentally added sparkling wine instead of gin when making a Negroni. And the Negroni Sbagliato* was born. (*Italian for mistaken Negroni)

Sip your Negroni Sbagliato from a whisky tumbler to allow the vapours to rise and enhance the flavour experience.
 
INGREDIENTS

25ml sweet vermouth
25ml Campari
25ml prosecco
Orange peel for garnish


METHOD
  1. Add ice to your whisky tumbler
  2. Pour the sweet vermouth, Campari, and Prosecco and stir gently to allow the flavours to mix
  3. Squeeze your orange peel over the drink to infuse the drink with citrus oils.
  4. Rub the outside of the peel on the glass rim, twist and then add to the glass
Sgroppino – Prosecco Lemon Sorbet

This can be a champain to make, but it's a must if you're looking for an exciting vodka prosecco cocktail to get the party started.

When making prosecco cocktails with vodka, the vodka acts as a neutral base, allowing the sparkling wine’s fruity flavours to come through.


INGREDIENTS

25ml vodka
80ml prosecco
1 scoop of lemon sorbet
Mint leaves
Lime wedge


METHOD

     1. Add the sorbet to a bowl and pour over the prosecco and vodka
     2. Whisk until the icy mixture becomes smooth
     3. Pour into a champagne flute and garnish with mint leaves and the lime wedge
 
Prosecco Margarita

A familiar favourite to liven up your party, serve in a Moscow Mule Mug to keep your cocktail ice-cold all night long!
 
INGREDIENTS

50ml white tequila
25ml fresh lime juice
25ml Cointreau
100ml prosecco
25ml agave syrup (or sugar syrup)
Coarse salt
Lime wedge for garnish


METHOD

    1. Pour the salt onto a flat plate
    2. Rub a lime on the glass/mug’s rim and rub the rim on the salt until coated
    3. Add ice to your cocktail shaker and pour in the tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, and agave syrup
    4. Shake well; you’ll know it’s mixed when the shaker becomes very cold
    5. Add ice into your mugs, pour in the cocktail mix and add the prosecco
    6. Add your lime wedges for that tangy flavour
