What is a Spritzer?
A spritzer is a carbonated/bubbly drink served in a tall glass with ice. It can be made with or without alcohol.
White wine spritzers are the most popular type of spritzers (see TIPS below) but any flavored drink mixed with sparkling water or soda water can be considered a spritzer.

Tips for Making Flavorful Spritzers
- Use fresh citrus instead of bottled or concentrated juice. It will make your spritzers taste light and refreshing.
- Add a splash of vodka to turn these citrus spritzers into a Vodka Spritzer.
