Description
Refreshing Limoncello combined with sparkling Prosecco and a splash of soda, the Limoncello Spritz cocktail is arguably the best Italian cocktail for the spring and summertime.
Andrew and I recently enjoyed the best Limoncello Spritz whilst enjoying lunch sitting outside a small Italian restaurant in Bruges, Brussels (see picture below!). As always, we cheekily asked for their recipe.
This particular Limoncello Spritz recipe is incredibly simple to make for you at home and is perfect for enjoying on a hot summer’s day.
