Cranberry elderflower spritz
Our friend Christopher loves cocktails, but he loves a simple cocktail even more. This one is perfect for all the upcoming holiday gatherings and the easiest welcome drink to get the evening started.
He had a bottle of elderflower liquor on his bar cart (for like forever) and he never get around to using it. Well, tis the season so he decided to put that bottle to good use for all of us at Pride In Business.

All you need for this one is a bottle of chilled Prosecco, vodka, elderflower liquor, fresh or frozen cranberries, and a sprig of Rosemary.
Hosting Tip: to not have to worry about whipping up a bunch of cocktails as your friends arrive, set out all of your cocktail glasses (or flutes like I used here). Add in the vodka, elderflower liquor and cranberry into the glasses. That way, as your friends arrive…simply top up with the Prosecco, give it a little stir, garnish and serve.
This recipe makes 1 cocktail.
Ingredients:
1 oz of vodka
1/2 oz of elderflower liquor
Prosecco
1-2 fresh or frozen cranberries
sprig of rosemary for garnish
Directions:
Add the vodka, elderflower liquor into a champagne flute.
Top with chilled Prosecco and garnish with cranberries and rosemary.
