Refreshing Pink Champagne Mocktail Recipe

15 min 4 servings Easy
The pink champagne mocktail is a delightful non-alcoholic beverage that brings the essence of celebration to any occasion. With its vibrant pink hue and refreshing taste, it's perfect for those who wish to enjoy the festivities without the alcohol. This version of the pink champagne mocktail uses sparkling white grape juice as a base, providing a bubbly and satisfying alternative that closely mimics the feel of champagne. Fresh raspberries add a pop of colour and a hint of natural sweetness, making it an attractive choice for brunches, baby showers, or any gathering where a sophisticated drink is desired.

Instructions

1

Make raspberry syrup

In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, lemon juice, and honey. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes until raspberries break down.

Pro tip: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

2

Strain the syrup

Use a fine-mesh sieve to strain the raspberry mixture into a bowl, pressing down to extract all the liquid.

Pro tip: Discard the seeds and pulp.

3

Chill the syrup

Allow the raspberry syrup to cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.

Pro tip: Cooling helps the flavours meld.

4

Prepare glasses

Chill 4 champagne flutes in the freezer for a few minutes to frost them.

Pro tip: Chilled glasses keep the mocktail cold longer.

5

Mix the mocktail

Divide the raspberry syrup among the chilled glasses, then slowly pour in the sparkling grape juice.

Pro tip: Pour gently to preserve the bubbles.

6

Garnish and serve

Garnish each glass with a few fresh raspberries and serve immediately.

Pro tip: Add a lemon twist for an extra touch of elegance.
