US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Garnish

  • Add the red sugar to a small dish and the pineapple juice to a small container.
  • Dip the rim of your cocktail glass into the juice. (Alternatively, you could use a lemon or lime slice to wet the rim, or some water instead.)
  • Dip the rim of the glass into the red sugar. Lift up the glass, turn it, and re-dip. Repeat until the whole rim is coated.

Cocktail

  • Add the pineapple juice into the serving glass.
  • Add in the Blue Curaçao liqueur, using your bar spoon to measure.
  • Use the bar spoon to stir the liquid up so that the color is evenly distributed.
  • Pour in the Prosecco, and serve. Cheers to the holidays!

Notes

  • Unless you're making these for a crowd, you can reuse the pineapple juice from wetting the glass rim in the actual cocktail itself.
