Sounds delicious...and easy! Now, what sort of cocktail would you mix for your guests before serving this?
Definitely, I would serve the original "Spritzer"
In U. S. is known as white wine mixed with soda water.
The real "Spritzer" is German and is made with a splash of Campari, half glass of dry white wine and half glass of sparkling mineral water, a zest of lemon, no ice
Do not use soda water, or you kill the drink
Let me know if you like it.
Would a Prosecco work?
