Cherry Fluster

Name: Cherry Fluster
Prep time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: 15 ml Campari® Bitter; 20 ml Cherry Brandy; 1 tsp Honey; 1 tbsp Cherry Jam; 1 dash Lemon Juice; Fill Champagne

A bright, fizzy Champagne cocktail that balances Campari's bitter backbone with the jammy sweetness of cherry brandy, cherry conserve and honey. Lemon juice lifts the richness so the drink feels lively rather than cloying, while the double-strain yields a silky, slightly textured mouthfeel. Served in a flute with a halved strawberry, it’s visually pretty and a stylish, bittersweet option for aperitif or celebration.
