This trendy cocktail is linked to the city of Venice where it originated in the 19th century.

The Austrians occupy the city, they find the local wines a bit harsh and ask that they be lengthened with sparkling water.

"Spritzen" means to sprinkle in German.

The recipe evolved in the 20th century with Prosecco which replaced classic wine and the arrival of Aperol.

Recipe :

1/3 Aperol or Campari

1/3 Prosecco

A dash of sparkling water
