Ingredients

  •  mint leaves fresh
  • cup ice cubes 
  • 0.8 ounce juice of lime fresh
  • ounces sparkling wine dry such as brut champagne, chilled
  • 1.5 ounces vodka 

Equipment

  • bowl

Directions

  1. In a bowl, purée frozen cherries or all-fruit spread with water. In general: 1 cup of frozen cherries (6 ounces) puréed with 2 tablespoons of water makes approximately 3/4 cup purée. To make purée using all-fruit spread, combine 3/4 cup spread with 3/4 cup water. Any extra can be used to make smoothies or sauce for ice cream.
  2. Transfer purée to chilled martini glass. In chilled cocktail shaker, combine vodka, lime juice, and simple syrup. Tear mint leaves in half and add to shaker.
  3. Add ice and shake vigorously for 15 seconds. Slowly strain into martini glass without disturbing purée, then top with sparkling wine and serve.
