This stunning, sparkling cocktail tastes as good as it looks! Perfect for adding a little glamour to a special occasion, this simple cocktail recipe is less of a recipe and more a question of assembly! Ready in a matter of seconds, it needs no fancy equipment, either.

To the frankly mouthwatering combination of grenadine (that’s pomegranate-flavoured cocktail syrup), gin and sparkling wine, we’ve also added a dash of dry vermouth, to balance the fruity syrup flavour of the grenadine. However, if a slightly sweeter cocktail is more up your street, then you can try it without the vermouth first and see whether or not you want to use it.

The secret ingredient is to use a high quality grenadine - lucky for you, we’ve got just the one on our online shop! Find it here.

Our other top tip? Chill your champagne flutes in the freezer before serving for a superbly sophisticated serve!

20ml gin
15ml dry vermouth (optional)
10ml grenadine
100ml sparkling wine (cava or prosecco will both work just as well!)
Pomegranate seeds, to garnish

Add your first three ingredients to a mixing glass with ice and stir to chill. Strain into a champagne flute or saucer and top up with sparkling wine. Garnish and serve!
