The Hugo spritz is light, bubbly, and just the right amount of fancy. Made with prosecco, a splash of elderflower liqueur, and topped with club soda, this light cocktail gets a fresh twist from mint leaves and lime slices. It’s the perfect drink for patio hangs, bridal showers, or any sunny afternoon when you want something a little bit floral and a whole lot refreshing.
- 1 ½ ounces elderflower liqueur
- 3 ounces prosecco
- 1 ounce club soda
- Garnish: Mint leaves (limes)
Build your spritz. Fill a wine glass with ice. Pour the elderflower liqueur over the ice and stir with a bar spoon until well chilled. Then, add the prosecco and club soda and gently stir to combine the ingredients.
Garnish and serve. Pop a lime wheel or two into your glass. Then, garnish with mint. Make sure you gently bruise the mint leaves to release the aromatic oils. This boosts the mint flavor of the cocktail.
Prep your glass. Fill a wine glass with ice. Then, tap mint leaves with palms to release oils, then add them to the glass.
