Helpful Tips

  • Chill all your ingredients beforehand—no one wants warm prosecco!

Substitutions and Variations

  • No prosecco? Use any sparkling white wine or a splash of champagne.
  • Make it tropical: Add ½ oz pineapple juice.
  • Make it a mocktail: Replace prosecco and blue curaçao with blue sports drink + lemon-lime soda or sparkling lemonade.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use champagne instead of prosecco?
Absolutely! Champagne will add a drier finish and a touch of luxury.

Is blue curaçao alcoholic?
Yes—it’s an orange-flavored liqueur, usually around 15–20% ABV. It gives that signature blue color and a citrusy note.

What’s the best glass to use?
A large wine glass or a highball glass works best to show off the layers and garnishes.

Can I make this into a punch?
Definitely! Just multiply the ingredients and mix everything in a large pitcher. Add club soda and prosecco right before serving.
