Prosecco tends to be slightly sweeter than champagne and is much more affordable, so it’s ideal for creating cocktails. It balances sharp ingredients like citrus, rounds off harsh edges of clear spirits and adds a splash of festive fizz to your favourite fruit liqueur.

Have a bottle of sloe gin squirreled away from autumn? Put it to good use with this hedgerow royale.
