Preparation steps

Preparing the fruits

1

Wash all the fruits: rinse the strawberries (300 g) under cold running water and dry them on a paper towel; remove the stems and cut the large fruits in half or quarters so that the pieces are bite-sized (about 1–2 cm). Gently rinse the raspberries (200 g) in a sieve and drain — do not crush them with your fingers. Peel the orange (200 g) of its skin and white pith, and cut it into thin slices or half-slices about 3–4 mm thick. Cut the lemon (60 g) in half; squeeze the juice from one half and keep the other half for decoration or zest (thin strips of peel).

Ingredients: Strawberries, Raspberries, Orange, Lemon
Use a cutting board and a sharp knife for strawberries and oranges. A small hand juicer is best for squeezing lemons. A common mistake: rinsing raspberries vigorously under a strong stream destroys their structure — use a sieve and do it gently.

Fruit maceration

2

Place the chopped strawberries and orange slices into a large jar or pitcher (minimum capacity 2 l). Add the raspberries and pour in the juice of half a lemon. If you want a sweeter drink, add simple syrup (100 ml) now — pour it in evenly. Gently stir with a wooden spoon to coat the fruit with the juice and syrup. Leave it in the refrigerator for 30–90 minutes to allow the fruit to release its juice (maceration). If preparing the day before, cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours — the flavors will intensify.

Ingredients: Strawberries, Raspberries, Orange, Lemon, Simple syrup (sugar + water)
Use a large glass jar or pitcher (preferably 2–3 l). Use a wooden spoon for mixing, not plastic, to prevent heating. If you are not using syrup, maceration for 30–60 minutes will be sufficient. Do not leave outside the refrigerator for more than 2 hours.

Cooling

3

Chill the sparkling wine bottles (1500 ml) in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. If you're short on time, place the bottles in a bucket with ice and water for 20–30 minutes — the water will equalize the temperature of the bottle faster than ice alone.

Ingredients: Sparkling wine (prosecco or cava)
The best serving temperature for Prosecco is 6–8°C. Use an ice bucket or place it in the fridge beforehand. Do not chill below 4°C, as the aromas and bubbles will be muted.

Preparing the drink

4

Just before serving, take the pitcher with the fruit out of the fridge. Gently pour the fruit mixture into a large bowl or a vessel with a wide opening for easier pouring. Slowly pour the chilled sparkling wine (1500 ml) into the pitcher with the fruit — pour close to the surface to minimize frothing. Stir very gently with a long spoon or stirrer for 10–15 seconds, just to combine the ingredients; vigorous stirring will lose the bubbles.

Ingredients: Sparkling wine (prosecco or cava), Strawberries, Raspberries, Orange, Lemon
Use a long bar spoon or a wooden spoon. If the wine foams up strongly, wait 1–2 minutes before adding more. Common mistake: pouring wine at full speed causes the loss of fizz.

Serving

5

Fill flute glasses or low cocktail glasses: first place 2–3 pieces of fruit at the bottom of each glass (e.g. 2–3 strawberries or 3–4 raspberries and a slice of orange), then slowly pour in sparkling wine to fill the glass to 3/4 full. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint (10 g) on the rim of the glass or on top. If syrup was used — taste and optionally add 5–10 ml more syrup to each serving if you want a sweeter drink.

Ingredients: Strawberries, Raspberries, Orange, Fresh mint, Sparkling wine (prosecco or cava)
For decoration, use fresh mint leaves and a thin slice of lemon. It's best to serve immediately after pouring, before the bubbles settle. Use flute glasses for an elegant presentation or wide glasses to showcase the fruit.

Optional additions

6

If you want to enhance the cocktail, you can add 20–40 ml of orange liqueur (e.g. triple sec) to the pitcher or more simple syrup to taste. Additionally, you can add a few crushed ice cubes to the pitcher or to each glass — remember that the ice will dilute the drink after a few minutes.

Ingredients: Simple syrup (sugar + water)
Add the liqueur carefully — it will increase the alcohol content and sweetness. If you are serving children or non-drinkers, prepare a version with sparkling water instead of sparkling wine and without the liqueur.

Fun Fact

💡

Cocktails with sparkling wine and fruits have similar roots to Spanish sangria and French 'kir royal' (with blackcurrant liqueur). The use of sparkling wine adds a festive touch — bubbles always impress at social occasions.

Tips

🍽️ Serving

Serve chilled, in flute glasses, with 2-3 pieces of fruit in each serving. For a larger gathering, prepare a pitcher with extra fruit and bottles on ice, so guests can help themselves. For a non-alcoholic version, replace the wine with very chilled sparkling water or non-alcoholic sparkling wine.

🥡 Storage

The prepared drink tastes best right after making; store it in the fridge covered in an airtight pitcher for up to 24 hours — after that, the bubbles fade and the fruits may become soggy. If you want to prepare the base in advance, store only the macerated fruits separately for up to 12 hours and combine with the wine just before serving.
