5 Sparkling Wine Cocktails Perfect for Summer
During the summer I love to sip on something delicious and refreshing cocktails. So I’ve compiled a list of 5 of my favorite sparkling wine cocktails that I think you will love. They’re all super simple to make and only call for a few ingredients.
Each recipe calls for Prosecco or your favorite sparkling wine. I strongly suggest using a Prosecco or Cava rather than Champagne or a sparkling wine made with the Champagne method. Prosecco and Cava typically lean on the lighter side with flavors of citrus and green apples whereas Champagne typically has flavors of bread, vanilla and nuts. However, make sure to play around with them, try different types and find the one that you truly love.

Classic Aperol Spritz
I call this a classic because it is, but it was my surprise this summer when I learned many of my friends had never tried one before. Aperol is an Italian apéritif that is full of citrus flavors like orange and grapefruit. If you’ve never had this one before you can pick up Aperol at any local grocery store that sells liquor or if your local Costco does then that’s where I find the cheapest one! This is super simple but will impress all your friends and family. For events where you’re serving a variety of drinks, it’s also worth looking into cold room suppliers to ensure everything stays perfectly chilled.
Classic Aperol Spritz
Ingredients:
- 3 oz Aperol – Can be picked up at most liquor stores or Costco
- 1 or 2 Orange slices
- 1 oz Club Soda
- 3 oz Dry Prosecco
Instructions:
- Grab a glass and fill with ice
- Pour in Aperol and club soda
- Add orange slices and top with dry Prosecco
Prosecco Punch
Lastly we have a simple lemonade punch that is sure to make your friends put down their white claws!
