Notes
Variations
- Cucumber - add slices or ribbons of cucumber made with a vegetable peeler (these are super pretty!) to the spritz glass to infuse a bit of cucumber flavor. This version is super refreshing. I've not tried it, but I think cucumber flavored soda water would also work well here (but don't be tempted to substitute for tonic water which will make the spritz bitter. Not what we're going for!)
- Citrus - slices of lime added to the glass will add a little freshness and zip! Lemon would also work but I think lime tastes better.
- Want a sweeter cocktail? Just add a dash of simple syrup.
- Looking for a lower alcohol drink? Just reduce the amount of sparkling wine and add a little more soda water instead.
- To make Hugo Spritz for a crowd, just scale up the recipe in a pitcher. Just be careful when adding the Prosecco and the soda water, and stirring the drink.
- If you just a single spritz for yourself, you can use individual-sized Prosecco so you don't waste a whole bottle.
