Puccini

Puccini is a straightforward Italian cocktail that combines tangerine juice and sparkling wine (typically Prosecco is used). To make the cocktail, fresh tangerine juice is poured directly into the glass and is then topped with sparkling wine.

Before making the cocktail, both drinks should be chilled. Puccini is traditionally served in a flute glass, and it usually comes without garnishes. Allegedly, it was created at Harry's Bar in Venice. Though this theory remains largely unconfirmed, it is popular in Venice.

Due to the availability of fresh tangerines, Puccini is usually enjoyed during winter and is especially favored during the Christmas season.
