Questions

What is Sgroppino Lemon Prosecco Slush?

A Venetian after-dinner cocktail that blends tart lemon sorbet with ice-cold Prosecco and a splash of vodka into a frothy, slushy sipper. This reference files it under Italian alcoholic drink: made in a blender, rated easy and about 10 minutes start to finish.

Can I make Sgroppino Lemon Prosecco Slush without alcohol?

The alcohol here is 2 cups Prosecco, well chilled and 1/4 cup vodka, ice cold. Replace a base spirit with the same volume of a zero-proof spirit, or with chilled tea or tonic for bite; replace sparkling wine with sparkling water and a squeeze of citrus. Keep every other line as written, and expect a lighter, sweeter drink, since alcohol also carries bitterness and body.

Can I batch Sgroppino Lemon Prosecco Slush for a group?

Yes. As written it serves 4. Halved, the sorbet drops from 2 cups to 1 cup; doubled, it is 4 cups. Every line in this entry carries its half and double quantity, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. To batch it for a crowd, multiply everything but add the ice only when serving.
