Ingredients

4 to 6 servings

　　1/2 cup sugar, plus 1/3 cup for sugaring the rims

　　Zest of 1 lime

　　Zest and juice of 1 lemon, plus 1 lemon, halved

　　3 cups Prosecco

　　1/2 cup Amaretto liqueur

　　Ice cubes

　　Lemon and lime slices, for garnish

　　

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then simmer over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool, about 20 minutes.

　　

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, combine the remaining 1/3 cup sugar with the lime and lemon zests. Rub 1 lemon half around the rim of each glass, making sure to coat them evenly both inside and out. Lightly press the rim into the citrus sugar to frost.
