Sparkling Strawberry Bellini Cocktail Recipe

Delicious cocktails are often neglected for their simplicity, as bartenders rely on ready-made mixes rather than showing these classics the care they deserve. Not at Coletta.

The professionally trained staff behind our bars use only the highest-quality ingredients possible. All our bar supplies– from the green herbs to the fruit– are served as fresh as possible, from the garden to your drink.

This beverage is no different.

We make our strawberry coulis in-house, ensuring the optimal flavor. This Italian beverage is mixed with sparkling prosecco and perfectly balances the tart and sweet. Fresh strawberries seal the deal, making this cocktail one of the most crowd-pleasing around.

The perfect sweet, minty flavor for a hot summer’s day, this strawberry mojito will make the perfect accompaniment for your next picnic, rooftop party, or “Sunday Funday!”

Ingredients

  • 1 medium lime
    4 strawberries
    2 mint sprigs
    1 teaspoon of sugar
    2 ounces of white rum
    2 ounces of club soda
    Ice

  • 2 ounces of white rum
    2 ounces of club soda
    Ice

Instructions

  1. Start by preparing the ingredients. Remove the mint leaves from the stem, juice the lime, and slice the strawberries into slices.
  2. In the bottom of a cocktail shaker, muddle together the sugar, strawberries, and lime juice. Top the puree with white rum, lime juice, and a few ice cubes, then shake thoroughly for around sixty seconds.

Strawberry Gin and Tonic

A more fun take on this traditionally mature beverage, this strawberry gin and tonic will have all your dinner guests begging for more.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 ounces of gin
    1 lime
    1 ounce of strawberry syrup

  • 5 ounces of club soda
    1 strawberry (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Combine the gin, strawberry syrup, and club soda in a glass.
  2. To juice the lime, start by rolling it gently across the countertop’s surface. This will soften the fruit, making it easier to break down into juice.
  3. Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice directly into the beverage, allowing for trace amounts of the pulp as well. Give it a final stir, top it with ice, and serve it fresh with a sliced strawberry garnish!
