Sips & Tips
Technique
Use a quality limoncello — homemade or a good Italian brand. Keep everything ice-cold. The basil garnish adds an aromatic herbal note that complements the lemon beautifully.
Balance
Limoncello is sweet, so the dry prosecco and soda provide essential balance. This should taste refreshing, not syrupy. Adjust the prosecco ratio if it's too sweet.
