- 4 oz Prosecco chilled
- 1 oz Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur like Cointreau
- 1 oz fresh orange juice
- 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 oz simple syrup optional, adjust to taste
- Ice
- Fresh thyme sprig for garnish
- Orange or lemon wheel for garnish (optional)
Prepare glass: Fill a wine glass or large stemmed glass with ice.
Add citrus and liqueur: Pour in Grand Marnier, orange juice, lemon juice, and simple syrup (if using).
Top with Prosecco: Gently pour in chilled Prosecco.
Stir gently: Give it a very gentle stir to combine — you want to preserve those bubbles.
Garnish: Add a fresh thyme sprig and an orange or lemon wheel if desired.
Serve immediately while cold and bubbly.
Variations:
- Grapefruit Punch: Substitute grapefruit juice for orange juice for a slightly more tart, sophisticated flavor.
- Cranberry Citrus: Add 1/2 oz cranberry juice for a festive pink hue.
- Non-Alcoholic: Replace Prosecco with sparkling water or ginger ale, and use orange extract in place of Grand Marnier, increasing the citrus juices slightly.
