Bubbly Lavender Spritz Basics
A Bubbly Lavender Spritz is a refreshing and elegant cocktail that combines floral notes with sparkling wine for a perfect summer drink.
Here’s what you’ll need:
• 4 oz Prosecco or dry sparkling wine

To make this delightful spritz, start by filling a wine glass or mason jar with ice.
Then, pour the Prosecco and lavender simple syrup into the glass.
Give it a gentle stir to combine the flavors.
After, top it off with a splash of soda water for extra bubbles.
For the finishing touch, garnish your drink with a lemon twist.
This adds a hint of citrus aroma that complements the floral lavender beautifully.
