Description
Make elegant Raspberry Sorbet Champagne Floats quickly for a celebration or brunch. This recipe focuses on simple assembly.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 scoops raspberry sorbet
- 1 bottle (750 ml) chilled Champagne or dry sparkling wine
- Fresh raspberries for garnish
- Mint sprigs for garnish
Instructions
- Chill four tall glasses (like flutes or coupes) in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.
- Place one scoop of raspberry sorbet into the bottom of each chilled glass.
- Slowly pour the chilled Champagne over the sorbet until the glass is nearly full. Pour slowly to control the foam.
- Garnish each float immediately with a few fresh raspberries and a small mint sprig.
- Serve immediately while the sorbet is still frozen and the drink is fizzy.
Notes
- For the best presentation, use a dry sparkling wine like Brut Champagne or Prosecco.
- The ideal ratio is one scoop of sorbet to about 4 to 5 ounces of sparkling wine.
- If you use store-bought sorbet, select one with a strong, natural raspberry flavor.
- For an alternative flavor, substitute the raspberry sorbet with lemon or strawberry sorbet.
