Troubleshooting Tips

  • Foam Overflow: If your Prosecco foams excessively, pour it slowly down the side of the glass. This will help minimize bubbles.
  • Too Sweet: If the drink is too sweet, add a splash more of lemon juice or a bit more Prosecco to balance the flavors.
  • Too Tart: If the mixture is too tart, consider adding a bit more sugar or using a sweeter sparkling wine.
