Apricot Honey Bubbles

Think of a bellini with fewer fuss and a touch of honey. Apricot nectar has the same sunny taste all year, and the honey rounds it out. Serve it with prosecco for the toast, or with sparkling water for anyone who does not drink.

Chef's secrets

Warm the honey for 5 seconds so it dissolves.
