This Nigella Christmas Cup is a fun and easy holiday drink. It’s fizzy, fruity, and perfect for celebrating with friends. With just a few ingredients, you can whip up a festive drink in no time!
Ingredients Needed:
- 1 x 750 milliliters bottle of prosecco (or other dry, white, fizzy wine)
- 125 millilitres of cherry brandy
- 500 millilitres of dry ginger ale
How To Make Christmas Cup?
- Chill the Ingredients: First, chill the prosecco and ginger ale in the fridge. If you’d like, you can also chill the jug where you’ll mix the drink.
- Mix the Drink: Pour the prosecco into the jug, then add the cherry brandy and ginger ale. Stir gently to mix, but be careful not to stir too hard and lose the fizz.
- Serve and Enjoy: Pour the drink into glasses. If you like, you can add ice to the glasses just before serving.

Recipe Tips:
- Chill Your Ingredients: Make sure the prosecco and ginger ale are chilled before mixing. This helps keep the drink refreshingly cold and bubbly when served.
- Stir Gently: When mixing the ingredients, stir gently. If you stir too hard, you may lose the fizz, and this drink is best when it’s sparkling!
- Choose the Right Glass: Use glasses that are wide enough to enjoy the full fizz and aroma of the drink. You can also use fancy glasses to make it more festive!
- Serve Immediately: This drink is best served right after making it. The longer it sits, the less fizzy it will be, so serve it quickly for that refreshing sparkle.
- Add Ice at the Last Moment: If you want to add ice, do it just before serving. Adding ice too early can make the drink go flat and watery.
How To Store Leftovers?
Let them cool down to room temperature before storing them in the fridge. Make sure to cover it tightly. It’s best enjoyed fresh, so try to drink it within a few hours.
