To store: Make this fresh! It doesn't keep well as it loses its fizz. If you are making a pitcher, you could also make it fresh and serve immediately.
Glass: I like it in a big wine glass or gin goblet but in the photos, I had a fun vase in the shape of a handbag and I made a large batch. The recipe above is for one glass.
General ratio: I like 3 parts prosecco: 2 parts elderflower liqueur: 1 part soda water. Then lots of lime and mint, of course. If you follow the general ratio of 3:2:1, that will always work.
Adjustments: Cocktails are personal! If you like yours sweeter, you may want more elderflower liqueur and less prosecco. You may even want some simple syrup in the cocktail. If you like it sharper, you may like to add lots of lime! Try it with the ratio above and then taste and adjust as needed.
