3 Spring Cocktails with Martini Asti
I will never forget my first taste of Martini Asti. It was at an engagement party and before cheers-ing to the happy couple, my sister turned to me and said “you are going to love this” and sure enough, she was right.
I have always been a fan of sparkling wine over everything – at any time and any where. For me, Martini Asti is the perfect drink at any occasion. Whether it’s celebrating a milestone, mixing the sparkling wine for a summer cocktail or just enjoying it with dinner on the patio, I find that Martini Asti’s savoury and sweet taste is one I could pair with anything.
This spring and summer season, I’ve made it a point to entertain more and of course with that, a few cocktails are needed. Even in the heavy summer when the heat is (almost) too much to bear, I love hanging out with some friends and enjoying a crisp and refreshing cocktail filled with my favourite fruits.
Martini Asti has put together some delicious cocktails for the summer, and after making a few this past weekend, I just had to share the results! Here are 3 of my current favourite summer cocktails made with Martini Asti sparkling wine:
