For those who enjoy a sweeter, fruit-forward cocktail, the Berry Burst is a delightful choice. This cocktail brings together the best of summer’s berry bounty with the effervescence of sparkling wine, creating a drink that’s as refreshing as it is flavorful. Whether you’re hosting a brunch or a backyard gathering, the Berry Burst is sure to be a hit with its vibrant color and taste.
ingredients
- 4 oz Cava (we love this paired with Avissi)
- 1 oz berry puree (strawberries, raspberries, or a mix)
- 1 tsp honey or simple syrup (optional)
- Fresh berries for garnish
directions
- Prepare the berry puree by blending your chosen berries until smooth. Strain if you prefer a smoother texture.
- Add the berry puree to a chilled champagne flute.
- If you like your drinks on the sweeter side, add a teaspoon of honey or simple syrup and stir.
- Top off with sparkling wine, pouring slowly to preserve the bubbles.
- Garnish with fresh berries and serve immediately.
