PG Tip: The Perfect Cocktail for Summer - The Sgroppino

This is the drink that will have you and your guests feeling ripe and ready for any Festa that lies ahead.

What's great about this drink is that
1) It's so, so easy to make - even if you are a bit tipsy already
2) It's unbelievably refreshing.

To make:
Step 1.  Pour 1 x bottle Prosecco into a jug
Step 2.  Add 5 x scoops Lemon Sorbet into the jug (1 scoop for every glass)
Step 3.  Blend - this can be done with a blender or even just a wooden spoon

To serve:
Chilled glasses only.  No plastic.

To wear:
As ever, something fabulous.  This drink deserves to be enjoyed with a sprinkle of bling.  Show some respect and glam up just a smidge.

To note:
Try not to get the name of this drink, Sgroppino, confused with a similar sounding italian word - Pompino.  This could get you into alot of trouble/fun (whichever way you want to look at it).

Saluti. X

Great cocktail tip.
For another version of this cocktail, add a splash of vodka. This version is particularly good at connecting people, so you may like to take it slowly. Or not.

Maybe a nice clear image of a "pompino" would be helpful to those of us who get so so easily confused??
