Notes from the Bar

Heads up: We may earn a small commission on products we’ve linked here. We only recommend the real-deal favorites from our kitchen.

APPLE BUTTER SYRUP

Whisk together 1/4 cup apple butter and 1/4 cup hot water until completely smooth. This makes enough syrup for 2 cocktails, so double it for a larger batch and refrigerate any leftovers. Unlike a standard simple syrup, apple butter syrup is made with equal parts fruit and water, so it adds rich apple flavor and a silky texture rather than intense sweetness.

BUILD IT GENTLY

Stir gently rather than shaking or stirring hard. This is a spritz, you want to keep as much bubble from the prosecco as possible.

PROSECCO MATTERS

A dry prosecco keeps this from tasting like straight apple juice. The apple butter syrup already brings plenty of sweetness, so a crisp, dry bottle balances it out.

DRIED APPLE GARNISH

We buy ours dried and ready to go, no dehydrator required. Look for slices thin enough to perch on the rim without weighing it down. → Shop our favorite dried apple slices

MAKE IT A BATCH

For a crowd, mix the apple butter syrup and prosecco together ahead of time and refrigerate. Add the club soda and ice glass by glass right before serving so it stays bubbly.

Because every drink deserves a beautiful moment.
