Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass

Place a chilled coupe or martini glass in the freezer for at least 5 minutes, or fill with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to ensure the Fleurtini is served cold and maintains effervescence when topped with champagne.

2

Combine base spirits and mixers

In a cocktail shaker, add 6 ice cubes, 1.5 oz Smirnoff (or neutral) vodka, 0.5 oz raspberry-flavored vodka (Smirnoff Raspberry), 0.5 oz framboise (raspberry liqueur), 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 1 oz cranberry juice. If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add 0.25 oz simple syrup.

3

Shake

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the shaker is well-chilled and slightly frosted. This both chills and lightly dilutes the mix for balance.

4

Prep glass and garnish

Remove the chilled glass from the freezer or dump the ice water. If you like, place two fresh raspberries on a cocktail pick or drop them into the bottom of the glass. Add a lime wheel or twist for garnish to the rim.

5

Strain into glass

Double-strain the shaken mixture into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne strainer and fine mesh strainer to catch small ice shards and any raspberry seeds, leaving the raspberries in the glass if using them as garnish.

6

Top with champagne

Carefully top the cocktail with 2 oz chilled champagne or dry sparkling wine. Pour gently down the side of the glass to preserve bubbles and avoid excessive foaming.

7

Finish and serve

Garnish with the lime wheel/twist on the rim and the raspberries in the drink or on a pick across the glass. Serve immediately while the champagne is effervescent.
