Ginger-Pomegranate Prosecco Cocktail
Thank you VOVETI for sponsoring this post. Elevate your entertaining this season with VOVETI Prosecco

My first ever cocktail recipe shared on Spice the Plate! This easy “Ginger-Pomegranate Prosecco Cocktail” is my secret weapon when I have friends over. I can’t wait to share with you!

All you need to make this tasty cocktail at home is: sugar, ginger slices, ice, sake (you can substitute with soju, or even gin/vodka in a pinch), pomegranate and prosecco. And they take only 20 minutes to be ready!

The main ingredient of this cocktail is the Voveti Prosecco. VOVETI is a brut style DOC with tempered acidity and a fresh, graceful profile. As an easy drinking aperitif or cocktail, this prosecco is perfect to share with friends.
Compared to champagne, prosecco has a fruitier taste and is typically more affordable. The sweet flavor profile makes it a great fit for this homemade cocktail.

To give this cocktail recipe a slight Asian twist, instead of using Gin or Vodka, I have chosen to use Japanese sake (Korean soju works great as well).
