Christmas Prosecco Cocktails
Pop the prosecco and pour the festive fizz. These six cocktail recipes will put the sparkle in your Christmas celebrations, whether you’re hosting a three-course dinner party or just a simple get-together with nibbles and drinks.
Prosecco is a sparkling white wine, originating from a small region named Conegliano Valdobbiadene in northeast Italy. Preferably enjoyed in a champagne flute (if on its own), the bubbly goodness has in recent years become synonymous with party drinks and celebrations. So let’s raise a glass to our Christmas-themed round-up of fizz cocktails. Remmeber that if you can’t find anything that takes your fancy, there are plenty more options over in our collection of prosecco cocktails.
If you’re a ginger fan like us, the Ginger Sparkle Prosecco is a top choice. Not only does it taste like a Christmas dream, but it looks like one too. Celebrating with friends? They’re about to be wowed. And if impressive is the concept you’re going for, try our Pinkster Royale too. The name speaks for itself.
There’s also the Pear and Cinnamon Fizz which feels like a festive high five at every sip. The sweet pear juice mixed with sparkling prosecco serve up a flavour that’s reminiscent of ice lollies but in cocktail form. It’s seriously delicious and a fresh choice if you’re getting bored of the more typical Christmas drinks.
