Notes

If you’re unsure how much liquid your serving glass hold, make this Limoncello Spritz in a pitcher and pour into serving glasses once you've combined all the ingredients. 
Keep it chilled but not diluted. Yes, Prosecco does freeze and you can make Prosecco ice cubes! Simply pour Prosecco into an ice cube tray and let them freeze for 6 hours.
Keep your bubbly, well, bubbly! If you have an unfinished, open a bottle of bubbly (whether it's champagne or Prosecco) and don’t finish it, put a metal spoon in the bottle (handle side down) and store in the refrigerator. When you go to pour it again, the bubbles will still be there. You’re welcome.
