Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup sugar, plus 1/3 cup for sugaring the rims
Zest of 1 lime
Zest and juice of 1 lemon, plus 1 lemon, halved
3 cups Prosecco
1/2 cup Amaretto liqueur
Lemon and lime slices, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then simmer over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool, about 20 minutes. In a shallow bowl, combine the remaining 1/3 cup sugar with the lime and lemon zests. Rub 1 lemon half around the rim of each glass, making sure to coat them evenly both inside and out. Lightly press the rim into the citrus sugar to frost. In a pitcher, combine the Prosecco, Amaretto, lemon juice, and the cooled syrup. Pour into the sugared glasses over ice. Garnish each glass with a slice of lemon and a slice of lime.
