Fully fill the jam jar with cubed ice, attach the screw lid securely then shake really well 'to and fro' for around 10 seconds to chill and mix
Step
3
Take the lid off carefully then top up with more cubed ice
Step
4
Add a decent splash of MARTINI Prosecco to fill the jam jar and stir again gently to combine
Step

Finally, garnish with a lightly slapped mint sprig, the optional freshly cut half of a strawberry, and a dusting of icing sugar.
Bartender top tips
This cocktail is a wonderful drink to play around with. By keeping the ingredient ratios the same, you can still add your own personal twist to this sublime cocktail by either changing the Vermouth, or using your preferred breakfast jam. Be it strawberry (wild, seeds or seedless), raspberry (my mum’s homemade is the best…) blackberry, blueberry, blackcurrant etc. – they will all work well. Even give it a go with your favourite marmalade instead! Go on and experiment to achieve the best recipe for your own personal taste.
