Spritz

History & Origins

The Spritz originated in northeastern Italy — particularly Venice and the Veneto — in the early 19th century when Austrian soldiers stationed in the region began diluting local wines with a splash of water (Spritzer). The modern version using Prosecco and bitter liqueur evolved throughout the 20th century as Campari and Aperol became ubiquitous in northern Italian bar culture. The IBA recognized it in its New Era Drinks category, acknowledging its global contemporary relevance.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Bitter orange and herbal complexity from the Campari, Prosecco's apple and floral fruit, and a clean soda freshness. Palate: Refreshingly bitter and effervescent, with Campari's orange peel bitterness balanced by Prosecco's gentle sweetness and the soda's neutral lift; the overall profile is light and aperitivo-appropriate. Finish: Dry, bitter, and sparkling with lingering orange peel and herbal notes.
