Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons rose syrup (Monin brand recommended)
- 1 bottle (750 ml) chilled dry or brut prosecco
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (about half a lemon)
- 1 tablespoon simple syrup (optional)
- A handful of fresh mint leaves for garnish
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Wash, hull, and slice about 1 cup of fresh strawberries. Place them in a mixing pitcher and gently crush with a muddler or wooden spoon to release juices, keeping some texture.
- Add 2 tablespoons of rose syrup and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to the crushed strawberries. Stir gently to combine.
- Taste the mixture and add 1 tablespoon of simple syrup if you prefer it sweeter. Stir gently.
- Optionally refrigerate the strawberry mixture for 10-15 minutes to chill.
- Slowly pour one 750 ml bottle of chilled prosecco into the pitcher. Stir gently to combine without losing bubbles.
- Serve over ice cubes in wine or champagne glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and a whole strawberry on the rim.
Notes
Avoid over-muddling strawberries to keep texture. Add prosecco last and stir gently to preserve bubbles. For a smoother drink, strain the mixture before adding prosecco. Keep prosecco chilled until serving. Non-alcoholic version can be made with sparkling water or white grape juice.
