If there’s one cocktail that instantly makes a moment feel elevated it’s a sparkling rosé spritz! Light, refreshing, and just the right amount of fancy, this drink is made for spring afternoons, backyard dinners, and those “just because” pours that turn into something memorable.

Using rosé as the base gives it a crisp, bubbly finish, while fresh strawberries and citrus bring a bright, seasonal twist. It’s effortless, beautiful, and guaranteed to impress without feeling overdone.

ingredients

  • 1 bottle chilled rosé
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1 orange, thinly sliced (or blood orange for extra color)
  • 2 oz elderflower liqueur
  • 1 oz fresh lemon juice
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • Ice (optional, for a more spritz-style feel)

directions

  • Add the sliced strawberries and orange to a large wine glass or coupe, gently muddling just enough to release their juices
  • Pour in the elderflower liqueur and fresh lemon juice
  • Fill the glass with ice if desired
  • Top slowly with chilled rosé Champagne
  • Give it a light stir to combine
  • Garnish with a sprig of mint and an extra strawberry slice

Serve immediately and enjoy while it’s perfectly chilled and bubbly. It’s the kind of cocktail that looks as good as it tastes, making it ideal for hosting or simply elevating your everyday glass.

Cheers!
