Hi Simon,
No sparkling wine mentioned in the ingredients, but it is in the instructions? Tried it with and it was tasty.

Thanks for bringing to my attention, David. I've added sparkling wine to the ingredients, but best I revisit this old cocktail of mine.

Looks like an update/ variant of the Sparkling Perry (yours, from 2002)?
