Spritz

A refreshing but "firm" drink that you will see the people in Venice enjoy in the late afternoon sun. One of my holiday souvenirs

• 1 part italian bitter like Campari, Cynar, Select or Aperol
• 2 parts dry white wine
• a firm squirt of sparkly mineral water
• a slice of lemon or orange
• ice cubes

Mix the wine with the "bitter" in the glass and top with the mineral water. Spritz with Campari or Cynar has a more bitter taste and they are served with a slice of lemon. Spritz made with Aperol(a low alcohol bitter) or Select is somewhat sweeter and served with orange. Take care that the wine and the water are chilled well....
Instead of wine and water you can  choose  to use prosecco instead.

Monin makes  a "bitter" syrup that has no alcohol. Use this if you want to make a lighter version. For a virgin Spritz  replace wine wine a non alcoholic white.
