Summer strawberry cocktail

By Rachel - Silversurfers Assistant Editor Jun 30, 2015

At long last the summer has arrived! When the weather forecast calls for nothing but sun this is the perfect summer cocktail to celebrate with; fresh, sweet and delicious, you can serve this to friends as part of a champagne afternoon tea in the garden or on its own in the evening with a bowl of fresh olives and warm bread. 

Serves: 6 people           Prep time: 10 minutes

You’ll need

  • 300g Sweet Eve strawberries
  • 6 sugar cubes (optional)
  • 3 shots of elderflower cordial
  • 3 shots of Campari
  • 1 bottle of Prosecco 

What to do

  1. Take 6 large champagne flutes and chill in the refrigerator. Hull all the strawberries and chop and blend half of them. Strain the strawberry puree into a jug through a sieve, to eliminate the seeds.
  2. When you are ready to serve the cocktail place a cube of sugar at the bottom of each glass, (if you prefer your cocktails less sweet then you can leave the sugar out). Pour half a shot of elderflower into each glass, followed by half a shot of Campari and half a shot of strained strawberry puree.
  3. Open the Prosecco bottle and top each flute with fizzy wine. Mix with a cocktail stirrer and serve with the remaining Sweet Eve strawberries.
