  • ½ orange, juiced
  • 6 sage leaves
  • around 4 ice cubes
  • 80ml sparkling white grape juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare Glasses: Pour 50ml cranberry juice into two champagne coupes or wine glasses to evenly distribute the juice between the two glasses.
  2. Add Orange Juice: Squeeze the juice from half an orange and divide it evenly between the glasses. Stir gently to combine the cranberry and orange juices.
  3. Add Sage and Ice: Place 3 fresh sage leaves in each glass for a fragrant herbal note, then add one or two ice cubes per glass to chill the drink.
  4. Top with Sparkling Juice: Carefully top each glass with 40ml of sparkling white grape juice, adding effervescent bubbles and a subtle sweetness to complete the spritz.
  5. Serve: Optionally, garnish with additional sage or an orange twist and serve immediately for the best flavor and presentation.

  • Adjust the amount of ice based on how chilled you prefer your drink.
  • For an adult version, you can replace the sparkling white grape juice with sparkling wine or prosecco.
  • Ensure juices are freshly squeezed for optimal freshness and flavor balance.
  • This drink is vegan and gluten-free by nature.
