Ingredients:

  • 1.5 oz premium vodka
  • 0.5 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 0.25 oz elderflower liqueur
  • 3 oz chilled Prosecco
  • 0.5 oz fresh cotton candy
  • 1 pinch edible luster dust

Instructions:

  1. Chill your coupe or flute glass in the freezer for at least 10 minutes. A cold glass prevents the Prosecco from foaming over.
  2. In a shaker, add the 1.5 oz vodka, 0.5 oz lemon juice, and 0.25 oz elderflower liqueur.
  3. Drop in a pinch of edible luster dust. Expect to see a concentrated swirl of color in the bottom of the shaker.
  4. Fill the shaker halfway with ice and shake for exactly 15 seconds. Listen for the ice to shatter slightly, signaling the liquid is ice cold.
  5. Strain the base. Pour the mixture into your chilled glass. You should have about 2.25 oz of liquid in the bottom.
  6. Position the cloud. Using tongs, gently place 0.5 oz of fresh cotton candy over the top of the glass. Ensure it rests on the rim and doesn't touch the liquid yet.
  7. The Reveal Pour. Slowly pour the 3 oz of chilled Prosecco directly over the center of the cotton candy.
  8. Watch the dissolution. The sugar will shatter and melt into the liquid within 2-3 seconds.
  9. Give a gentle swirl. Use a long spoon to ensure the luster dust is fully incorporated for a velvety shimmer.
