Happy New Year! Did you make any resolutions? I make a lot of them. I figure if I make only one and don’t keep it, then it’s disappointing, but if I make, say, 26 resolutions, and achieve just one, I can still say I kept one… On one hand, it’s setting me up for failure, but on the other hand, it’s guaranteeing me at least a little success. And I think the latter is more important.

So this cocktail… It’s got fruit in it, so you can drink it for breakfast. I’m pretty sure that’s the rule. The tartnesss of the lemon/lime and raspberries as well as the bitterness of the, you guessed it, bitters, play against the natural sweetness of the prosecco and the sugar in the soda.

RECIPE
for two

bottle of prosecco (“Italian champagne”)
2 oz lemon lime soda
a few dashes of bitters
6-7 raspberries, halved

1. Divide the raspberries among the two champagne glasses.
2. Pour in 1 oz of soda and a couple dashes of bitters in each.
3. Top off with prosecco.
4. Cheers!
