Equipment
Ingredients & substitutions
- Prosecco – This Italian sparkling wine pairs perfectly with limoncello, but you can substitute any slightly sweet sparkling wine.
- Limoncello – This one of a kind liqueur has the best sweet lemon flavor around. We would not recommend swapping this out.
- Club soda – You can skip this or add a bit more prosecco if you prefer, however this adds a bit more bubbly without altering the flavor of the cocktail.
