Spritz


This alcoholic drink is one of the most famous in Italy in this moment. My foreign friends seem to like it a lot and it is good in winter and summer as well.

There are many versions, as usual in Italy everybody has to make it different.
In Venice, for example, some bars do not add prosecco at all. A Dutch friend of mine suggested that may be they prefer to taste the dry prosecco as it is, and there is no doubt prosecco is a great wine.... 

This is the original mix which you can find on the back label of the Campari bottle.

Proportios:
3 parts Prosecco
2 parts Aperol 
1 splash of soda
1 orange slice for each glass
ice cubes

My husband's version.... (less alcohol)

1/3 prosecco
1/3 Aperol
1/3 Schweppes
1 orange slice for each glass


1)  Refrigerate all the bottles for 2 hours....




2)  (original recipe)
Pour Prosecco, Aperol and Schweppes over the ice  in a cocktail glass, add a slice of orange (unpeeled but washed) 





Cheers!
