    What’s in a Raspberry Champagne Cocktail

    If you’re looking for a drink that’s perfect for celebrating a special occasion, or just want to indulge in something sweet and bubbly, a raspberry champagne cocktail is an excellent choice. Similar to a Raspberry Bellini it has just a few ingredients. In minutes you can create a delicious and refreshing drink that’s perfect for any time of day.

    The cocktail typically consists of 2 tablespoons of raspberry syrup and ½ ounce of lemon juice. The ingredients are easily poured into champagne flutes and layered on top of each other. The glass is then topped off with chilled champagne, creating a refreshing and festive drink that’s perfect for celebrating special occasions. The cocktail can be garnished with a raspberry or lemon twist to add an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal.

    Ingredient Notes

    Ingredients in a raspberry champagne cocktail.
    • Raspberry Syrup – The raspberry syrup helps balance out the tartness of the lemon juice and adds a touch of sweetness. It makes the cocktail more enjoyable to drink. Additionally, the syrup gives the drink its signature raspberry flavor.
    • Lemon Juice – Lemon juice also helps to enhance the aroma of the cocktail. It gives it a fresh and invigorating scent that complements the fruity notes of the raspberry syrup. I recommend using fresh-squeezed lemon juice.
    • Champagne – it’s best to use dry or extra-dry champagne. These types of champagne have a lower sugar content and won’t make the cocktail overly sweet. Some popular types of champagne that work well in a champagne cocktail include Brut, Blanc de Blancs, and Blanc de Noirs. You can also use a cava or prosecco.

    How to Make a Champagne Cocktail

    Raspberry champagne cocktail process steps 1 and 2.
    1. Mix the syrup and lemon juice. In a mixing glass or small bowl, add 2 tablespoons of raspberry syrup and ½ ounce of lemon juice. Stir the mixture with a long spoon until the raspberry syrup and lemon juice are well combined.
    2. Layer the ingredients. Pour the syrup mixture into a chilled champagne flute. Slowly pour chilled champagne into the glass until it is full. Gently stir the cocktail with a spoon to combine the ingredients.

    Recipe Notes and Tips

    • Make it ahead. If you’re serving this drink at a party, you can pre-make the raspberry syrup and lemon juice mixture ahead of time. When your guests arrive, just pour the mixture into a cocktail shaker, add the champagne, and serve.
    • It can be made non-alcoholic. For a non-alcoholic version of this drink, you can substitute the champagne with club soda or sparkling water.
    • Make your own raspberry syrup. Using homemade raspberry syrup gives the cocktail a more vibrant flavor and it takes only minutes to prepare.

    FAQS

    Can I use frozen raspberries instead of raspberry syrup?

    While frozen raspberries can be used to make raspberry syrup, using them directly in the cocktail will result in a different texture and consistency. It’s best to use raspberry syrup for a smooth and consistent flavor.

    Can I use other types of citrus juice instead of lemon juice?

    Yes, you can use other types of citrus juice such as lime or grapefruit, but keep in mind that it will alter the flavor profile of the cocktail.

    Can I make a large batch of raspberry champagne cocktail?

    Yes, you can make a large batch of raspberry champagne cocktail by scaling up the recipe accordingly and mixing the ingredients in a pitcher or punch bowl. Just be sure to keep the champagne chilled and add it just before serving to ensure the bubbles are preserved.
