Don’t tell the Plum and Thyme prosecco smash but the Grapefruit and Sage Fizz may be my favorite out of the two fall cocktails I’ve whipped up for you with Luna Nuda’s Prosecco.
Now that’s not to say that I don’t like the Plum and Thyme recipe I created, it just means that I prefer the tartness of this one over the sweetness of the other. I am a sour candy type of girl, so it’s a no-brainer that I would gravitate towards this sweet and tart concoction! The sage pairs perfectly with the freshness of the citrus and the prosecco from Luna Nuda adds a nice effervescence that tingles your nose as you take a sip! A truly revitalizing fall cocktail, you’ll be mixing it all season long.
