Ingredients

1 1/3 cups Prosecco (Italian sparkling white wine)
1 cup limoncello liqueur
1 (12 fluid ounce) can club soda, or as needed
1/4 cup coarse sugar, or as needed
1 lemon slice
4 lemon slices, for garnish

Directions

1 Chill Prosecco, limoncello, and soda water. Place glasses in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before using.
