This recipe is way too sweet as written. Giada must have a much larger sweet tooth than I do! I found that 1/2 cup mint simple syrup was the perfect sweetness level for me, plus a little vodka for good measure :- Note, Giada does not zest the citrus in the video, so I also skipped this step to avoid bits of zest in my drink. With my adjustments, I would give the drink 4-5 stars.

this was great - but like others, I cut way back on the mint simple syrup. I halved it and then added two bottles of champagne instead of one. It was fantastic.

My girlfriends and I loved this drink! We got about 6 drinks from one recipe, so I would multiply accordingly; it was light, summery, and delicious! I halved the mint syrup and it was perfect....2 cups would have been way too sweet. Next time I don't think I will zest the lemon/lime, we ended up with little zesty bits at the end. I will definitely make this again!!

Word of warning....make twice the amount! Not only is this drink a hit with everyone, they keep coming back and wanting more!
Thanks Giada!

First of all, the prep time is more like 40 min, not 2 min. That said, this recipe with half the sugar won a sangria contest at a club gathering by a large margin.

AMAZING!!! I love this drink! Perfect for a hot summer day. I made this for my boyfriend who is not big on champagne or wine and he couldn't get enough!

gets awesome reviews from friends and families everytime! I cut the mint syrup in half because it makes it too sweet even if I use extra dry prosecco/champagne. I have also tried it with raspberries and different fruit juice (pineapple/mango or orange/pineapple. I put my glasses in the freezer with raspberries to freeze them before pouring the drink--adds a special touch! Will be making this more often.

Fantastic flavors...adjust with seltzer or less syrup if too sweet, but great drink!
