Prosecco and Elderflower Spritzer

Three ingredients–Italian sparkling wine, a splash of sexy liqueur, and bubbly mineral water–make up this barely boozy spritzer, celebratory simplicity in a tall ice-filled glass. Sparkling, enchanting, and inviting, with pear, citrus and floral nectar, this Prosecco and elderflower spritzer is a most delightful cocktail.

Have you ever tasted St-Germain, the amber French liqueur made with hand-picked elderflower blossoms? With bright and fragrant flavor hinting of honeyed pear, white peaches and grapefruit, St-Germain makes magic in this spritzer.

Keep bubbly Prosecco and sparkling water in your fridge and a bottle of St-Germain in your liquor cabinet and you’re always ready for a party.
