Ingredients
  

Main
  • Sparkling wine Prosecco or Champagne: 3 ounces
  • Green juice or puree cucumber, kiwi, honeydew, or green apple: 2 ounces
  • Fresh lemon juice: 0.5 ounce
  • Simple syrup optional: 0.25 ounce
  • Ice cubes: as needed

Equipment

  • Champagne flute or wine glass
  • Measuring jigger or shot glass
  • Bar spoon or regular spoon for stirring
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Blender or juicer
  • Pitcher (optional)

Method
 

  1. Place your champagne flute in the freezer for at least 2 minutes to chill the glass.
  2. If using fresh cucumber, blend one medium cucumber with a splash of water and strain through a fine mesh sieve to make 2 ounces of juice.
  3. Fill the chilled glass halfway with small ice cubes or crushed ice.
  4. Pour 2 ounces of green juice into the glass over the ice.
  5. Add 0.5 ounce of fresh lemon juice and stir gently for about 3 seconds.
  6. Taste and add 0.25 ounce of simple syrup if additional sweetness is desired.
  7. Slowly pour 3 ounces of chilled sparkling wine down the side of the glass to preserve carbonation.
  8. Gently stir once with a bar spoon, then garnish with a fresh cucumber ribbon, mint sprig, or kiwi slice.
