Method

To make the plum syrup, place the plums, caster sugar, vanilla extract and 125ml water in a saucepan over a medium high heat. Bring to the boil and allow to simmer for 8 mins until the sugar has dissolved and the plums softened. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Strain and chill until needed.
To serve, divide the syrup between 6 large champagne flutes and top up with prosecco and garnish with a sprig of thyme. Serve.
