Iconic & lemony Limoncello Spritz

Sparkling Limoncello Spritz

This Limoncello Spritz is like a summer evening in Italy; it tastes wonderfully lemony and with every sip, it puts us in a more relaxed holiday mood. Just like the popular Aperol Spritz, the Limoncello Spritz has its roots in Italy. Almost everyone in Italy knows it, and it's becoming increasingly popular here as well. Limoncello is a refreshingly fruity liqueur made from lemons.

Aromatic, sparkling aperitif

Few trendy drinks evoke the feeling of summer quite like the popular Aperol Spritz. But Limoncello or Limoncino take it to a whole new level of fruitiness and summeriness. Prepare the Limoncello Spritz in a Prosecco glass or highball glass. Garnish with a lemon slice, lemon balm, and a straw.
