Amalfi Spritzer Cocktail

Light, zesty and sophisticated, the Amalfi Spritzer is a sparkling tribute to coastal Italy. Limoncello, a liqueur made by infusing lemon zest and southern Italian charm, is at the core of this drink. It is bright but gentle, with just enough sweetness to feel decadent without being overbearing, and tastes great when served over ice.

What you’ll need

Ingredients

Serves:
1
  • Limoncello
    15ml
  • Chilled prosecco
    15ml
  • Chilled soda water
    90ml
  • Ice cubes
  • Mint sprig and lemon wheel, for garnish

Method

  1. Step 1

    Pour fresh ice into a large, pre-chilled wine glass.

  2. Step 2

    Add the prosecco and limoncello.

  3. Step 3

    Pour soda water on top and stir gently.

  4. Step 4

    For a crisp, zesty scent, garnish with a lemon wheel and a mint leaf.

Tips & Suggestions

  • For a strong, zesty flavour, use a premium limoncello; inferior varieties taste too sweet or artificial and stifle the cocktail’s vibrant citrus flavour.

  • Just before serving, garnish with a freshly squeezed lemon wheel and a mint sprig. The scent of mint leaves elevates the beverage and pairs well with the zest of the limoncello.
