How To Make An Elderflower Cocktail

1. Add fresh raspberries to a champagne flute. You can leave them whole or muddle them after adding to release juice and make the cocktail a pretty blush color.
2. Add simple syrup and elderflower liqueur (St. Elder or St. Germain are great choices) and give them a gentle stir.
3. Top the glass off with chilled champagne and garnish with additional raspberries, if desired.

How To Serve A Champagne Cocktail

You can serve your drink in a traditional or stemless champagne flute! I love these gold stainless steel ones too! You can also use these disposable gold cheers flutes which are great for parties!

Recipe Variations

Unsweetened: Go ahead and omit the simple syrup if you prefer a drier cocktail.

Sugar Cube: You can also substitute for a sugar cube that has less sugar but still adds a touch of sweetness/ A sugar cube can make for a pretty presentation too!

Rock Candy: This can make the cocktail a bit sweeter overall, but it makes for such a great presentation and it’s such fun for parties!

Peach: Replace 1/2 ounce of elderflower liqueur with 1/2 ounce of peach schnapps for a fruity blend of flavor!

Prosecco: Feel free to skip the dry champagne and use prosecco or another bubbly of choice.

Soda: Instead of bubbly alcohol, you could use lemon-lime soda or club soda. This will leave very little alcohol left in the drink, but it will still be delicious!
