Stolly Dolly is a simple, highball-style vodka-and-bubbles drink that sits in the same easygoing family as other spirit-and-sparkling serves. It doesn’t come with a widely documented origin story, so you’ll mostly find it enjoyed as a straightforward party pour: clean vodka lengthened with plenty of fizz, built for speed and sociability rather than ceremony.

With just vodka and Champagne or prosecco, the flavour is all about contrast and lift. The vodka brings a neutral, lightly warming backbone that stays out of the way, while the sparkling wine supplies crisp fruitiness, bright acidity, and a lively effervescence. Together, the bubbles lighten the spirit’s weight, and the spirit subtly dries out the wine’s sweetness, leaving you with a clean, brisk finish.

Served in a pint glass, it’s made for big, casual moments—think celebrations where you want something sparkling but not precious. You’ll enjoy it if you like your drinks uncomplicated, refreshing, and on the drier side, with enough sparkle to keep each sip feeling upbeat.

Cocktail Colin says:

4/5

Vodka leads with a clean, neutral bite that quickly gives way to the crisp, lightly fruity lift of Champagne/prosecco, with bubbles carrying both across the palate in a tall, airy pour. The combination works because the sparkling wine’s acidity and effervescence brighten and dilute the vodka’s edge, making it ideal for drinkers who want something simple, dry-leaning, and fast to build.
