You can make it happen!
I went and entered a Prosecco Cocktail Recipe Contest and the finalists are determined by public vote!
The recipe is designed to taste good while being insidiously potent to the amateur drinker:
THE CHANGE OF SEASONS
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 oz fresh squeezed and strained grapefruit juice (ruby red preferred)
1 oz good quality pear brandy
6 1/2 oz Mionetto's IL Prosecco
Ice (for chilling)
Grapefruit Zest Curl
PREPARATION:
Chill an 8 oz Manhattan Glass, rub rim with grapefruit zest.
In small shaker mix grapefruit juice and pear brandy with a few ice cubes, swirl to chill.
Pour juice/brandy combination into manahattan glass, top with Prosecco.
Garnish with grapefruit zest curl.
Quite tasty, though since entering I have decided a dash of simple syrup puts it over the tops. alas alas
The site to vote on is . . .

my recipe is way the hell down the page and called The Change of Seasons, there's a button next to the recipe to vote. Help a Modern Drunkard (albeit a rarely posting one) out. Vote early and often and tell all your friends!
