Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1/2 oz crème de cassis
  • 4 oz champagne prosecco, cava, or white wine

Pro Tips

  • Chill everything first. Cold ingredients preserve carbonation.
  • Pour gently. This prevents overflow and keeps bubbles intact.
  • Use a light hand with cassis. Too much can overpower the wine.
