The main ingredient of this cocktail is the Voveti Prosecco. VOVETI is a brut style DOC with tempered acidity and a fresh, graceful profile. As an easy drinking aperitif or cocktail, this prosecco is perfect to share with friends.

Compared to champagne, prosecco has a fruitier taste and is typically more affordable. The sweet flavor profile makes it a great fit for this homemade cocktail.

Prosecco Cocktails
To give this cocktail recipe a slight Asian twist, instead of using Gin or Vodka, I have chosen to use Japanese sake (Korean soju works great as well).
