I had to share this with you while there are still gobs of fresh figs and raspberries in the stores (and in my yard!)
I absolutely love a light bubbly prosecco cocktail and this one is perfect for a late Summer gathering. It is so pretty and fruity, but not too sweet. I love the addition of the brilliant red-pink raspberry syrup, but you could certainly just lace the chilled prosecco with the fresh fruit on its own.
I am thinking that a couple of you might be interested in a simple and delicious drink like this for all of the gatherings this coming weekend. Please enjoy!
Recipe: Raspberry Fig Prosecco Punch
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Raspberry Simple Syrup
- 6 fresh raspberries
- 1 large fig thinly sliced
- chilled prosecco
- Raspberry Simple Syrup
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup raspberries
Instructions
- For the Simple Syrup combine the sugar, water and raspberries in a small pot and simmer until the sugar dissolves and the syrup thickens- about 5-7 minutes. Strain the syrup and discard the pulp. Refrigerate the syrup for up to two weeks.

This is simply gorgeous! I definitely need a little bubbly in my life, especially with 100+ degree heat we are currently having! Have a great holiday!
I’ve been playing around with a fig cocktail for the last few days but I love the simplicity of this! It’s gorgeous too!
Prosecco is my go-to sparkling wine as well! Confession: I usually use the $6.99 non-vintage from Trader Joe’s.
Michelle- I totally buy the 6.99 sparkling rose at TJ’s
