Candy Cane Prosecco Variations and Substitutions
This fun holiday drink lends itself to a number of options. Let me know in the comments if you try any!
Instead of grapefruit or lime juice, try 🍋 lemon, orange or even a mix of different juices. If you want to make a mocktail you can substitute the Procecco. You can also try🍾 champagne with sparkling water or a non-alcoholic sparkling beverage like sparkling cider. Feel free to add other garnishes to your drink. Try garnishes such as fresh fruit that corresponds to the juice you use, even mint leaves or edible flowers. For the rim coating, you could use a colored sugar, crushed graham crackers, or sprinkles instead of crushed candy canes.
