This is a nonalcoholic version of a classic Champagne cocktail … with a Vegas twist, of course! Cotton candy gives this drink fun color and sweet flavor.

Technique tip: The bitters in this recipe will really help balance out the sweetness of the candy and the wine.

Swap option: If you want to make this boozy, swap out the nonalcoholic wine with prosecco or Champagne.

Ingredients

  • Pop Rocks candy
  • lemon wedge
  • 1/2 ounce nonalcoholic aperitivo
  • pinch of sea salt
  • cotton candy
  • sparking nonalcoholic wine

Preparation

1.

Place the Pop Rocks on a plate or in a shallow bowl. Use a lemon wedge to wet the rim of the glass and dip in the Pop Rocks, coating the rim and sides.

2.

Place the aperitivo into the bottom of the glass. Add a pinch of sea salt. Top with a big chunk of cotton candy.

3.

Pour the sparkling wine on top and garnish with more cotton candy. Serve immediately.
