Endless Sparkles, Three Recipes: Champagne & Prosecco
Celebrate summer! When it comes to proposing a toast, Champagne, Prosecco, Crémant or Sekt are always a good choice – and anything that sparkles is also an ideal ingredient for light summer cocktails.
Bellini
Here comes the perfect companion for your pool parties, garden parties or relaxing evenings on the terrace. A sweet refreshing drink with origins in Venice.
- 10 cl prosecco
- 1 peach
- 1 cl sugar syrup
Mash half a fresh peach in a blender and pour into a prechilled champagne glass. Pour the sugar syrup over it and stir gently. Top up with ice-cold, dry prosecco and serve immediately.

- 100 ml prosecco
- 40 ml mineral water

Kir Royal
Give your home bar a royal touch and serve a Kir Royal. A popular aperitif made with only two ingredients – in a Kir Royal, the champagne asks the crème de cassis to dance.
- 8 cl champagne
- 2 cl crème de cassis
Pour the ice-cold champagne or sparkling wine into a champagne flute and add the crème de cassis. Then stir and say cheers! Alternatively, you have the option to build a Kir Royal with another sparkling wine instead of champagne.
