Vinat Hugo Spritz

Vinat Hugo Spritz

Bring Italian summer home with this lovely summer sipper!! If you’re like me, you love something fresh and lightly sweet for a poolside spritz or aperitif. I was so excited when I discovered the Hugo Spritz while traveling. 

As a former bartender, I love playing with super simple recipes, and Prosecco cocktails are my current favorite experiment.  

For this recipe, I measure using a 1.5-ounce shot glass. If you decide to vary your amounts of elderflower liquor, soda water, and Prosecco based on your preferences I’d recommend keeping it proportional.

 


Serving size: 1


Ingredients

  • 1.5 fl oz of elderflower liqueur (I use St-Germain)
  • 1-2 sprigs of fresh mint
  • Lemon (optional)
  • 1.5 fl oz of soda water 
  • 4.5 ounces Valevino Skinny Dip Prosecco
  • ice

Step 1:

Muddle elderflower liqueur, mint, and lemon (optional). Let it sit for a few minutes.


Note: I toss in a splash of lemon into the Vinat Hugo. I love the little hint of flavor it adds! This is totally optional as the lemon is often used as a garnish. 


Step 2: 

Add ice to the glass.


Step 3:

Top it off with Valevino Skinny Dip Prosecco & soda water.


Step 4: 

Stir to blend your ingredients.


Step 5:

Sip & enjoy!
