Sgroppino

Lemon sorbet provides both the frozen texture and citrus sweetness in this small whisked drink. Dry pear spirit and vodka form the alcoholic base, with chilled Prosecco folded in through an open bowl rather than a sealed shaker.

Pale white-yellow slushy Sgroppino in a double rocks glass with mint sprig, no ice cubes.
