PARTNER POST: Get ready to serve a holiday crowd with cocktail recipes easily topped with sparkling Lunetta Prosecco.
Light up the holiday season with this festive clementine and cranberry cocktail topped with a spritz of Prosecco.
Tis the season to be jolly! I just love a good holiday cocktail. Combining all the flavors of the season is one of my favorite things to do. I also have a love of wine and more of a love for bubbles as in Lunetta Prosecco. Some of my favorite seasonal flavor combinations are cranberry and clementine.
Holiday cheer keeps everyone happy. Wether you serve this cocktail to you holiday guests or just pour yourself a glass while wrapping presents, it is the perfect holiday drink!
Lunetta (“Little Moon” in Italian) celebrates life’s small pleasures. The grapes are handpicked and vinified at Cavit’s state-of-the-art sparkling wine facility in the northern Italian region of Trentino, dedicated exclusively to producing world-class sparkling wines.
Enticing aromas of apple and peach give way to a palate that is refreshing, and harmonious, with crisp fruit flavors and a clean finish.
Lunetta Prosecco is delightful as an aperitif or enjoyed with antipasti, hors d’oeuvres, sushi, shellfish and seafood.
