Equipment

  • Measuring Jigger

Instructions

Notes

Substitutes:

  • Rhubarb Liqueur: If you can't find rhubarb liqueur, you can use rhubarb syrup as a substitute. Alternatively, you can use strawberry syrup for a different but equally delicious flavor profile.
  • Prosecco: Any sparkling wine will work in place of Prosecco. I've used Cava and Champagne before, and both were excellent.
  • Soda Water: Any kind of sparkling mineral water can be used to make this recipe.

Making it Non-Alcoholic:

  • Rhubarb Liqueur Substitute: Rhubarb syrup makes an excellent substitute; just make sure to adjust the quantity as syrups generally tend to be sweeter than liqueurs.
  • Prosecco Substitute: Opt for a non-alcoholic sparkling white wine. .
  • Proceed As Usual: Use these non-alcoholic substitutes instead of the regular ingredients, follow the original steps, and enjoy a non-alcoholic version of the Rhubarb Spritz.

Making it Vegan:

This cocktail is already vegan-friendly. Just make sure to use a vegan Prosecco or sparkling wine, as some brands use animal products during filtration.
