Notes
Substitutes:
- Prosecco: If you don't have Prosecco, I recommend using any dry sparkling wine like Cava or Champagne. They provide a similar bubbly texture and flavor profile.
- Strawberry Puree: In case you can't find strawberry puree, blend fresh strawberries with a bit of sugar to make your own. I've also used raspberry puree for a different berry twist.
Making it Non-Alcoholic:
- Prosecco Substitute: Use non-alcoholic sparkling wine or sparkling water for a bubbly effect without alcohol.
- Proceed As Usual: Replace Prosecco with your non-alcoholic choice and follow the original steps for a refreshing mocktail.
Making it Vegan:
- Ensure Ingredients Are Vegan: Check that your Prosecco is vegan-friendly, as some wines use animal products in processing. Many brands now offer vegan options.
- Strawberry Puree: Use fresh strawberries to ensure no animal-derived additives are present.
- Proceed As Usual: Follow the original recipe steps with these vegan-friendly ingredients for a delicious vegan Rossini.
