The Spritz, a must-have cocktail at Jardins ? We tell you its story 🌸 This cocktail popular in Italy and other parts of Europe, which mainly consists of bitter aperitif (Aperol, Campari ...), prosecco and sparkling water. It is said to have historical origins dating back to the time of the Roman Empire, when Roman soldiers mixed wine with water to make it weaker and more refreshing. The modern spritz as we know it today, however, has more recent origins. It emerged in the 1800s in Veneto, Italy, where it was common to mix white wine with water and soda to make it lighter and more refreshing. Over the years, this drink has gained popularity in Italy and has also been adopted in other European countries, especially Austria and Germany. Nowadays, the spritz is considered one of the most popular cocktails in Italy and is often served as an aperitif before dinner. It is appreciated for its bitter and sweet taste that goes very well with the salty notes of the aperitif. The spritz has also grown in popularity in Europe and other parts of the world, particularly the United States and Australia, thanks to its refreshing flavor and ease of preparation. Today it is available in: the classic with bitter orange (with for example aperol or campari), Ugo spritz with elderflower... and many more to come!
