I love a great cold cocktail on a hot day. I love sitting on my deck with my husband at the end of a long day and chatting as we listen to the birds sing during the summer months. This amazing White Wine Spritzer is the perfect cocktail for such an evening. Made with just a few simple ingredients and so refreshing, this will be your go to summer cocktail.
What is a Wine Spritzer
The most refreshing cocktail ever. Seriously. It is a cocktail made with wine and sparkling water resulting in a bubbly and invigorating drink that has been loved for hundreds of years. It can be made with white wine, red wine, or rosé. Since this is a white wine spritzer recipe, we use white wine, but part of the greatness of this drink is being able to customize it and use what you have on hand!

Divide the wine. Fill two glasses with ice and divide the wine between the two. Top with club soda and garnish. We use a ratio of about 3:1 for wine to soda. No need to measure, exact amounts aren’t crucial and will still produce a delicious drink. Squeeze in the lemon slice. This adds such a great background flavor and brightens up the cocktail. Then toss in some berries if using and enjoy!
Any kind of wine will work as long as it is nice and cold before you start. If you like sweeter cocktails, a Moscato or Riesling would be a good option. If you want a dry white wine, go with Sauvignon Blanc. This spritzer would also be delicious with a Rosé wine.
Berries: Raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and strawberries. Use frozen berries to help keep your drink cold! Citrus: In addition to the lemon slice you could add a slice of lime or orange. Frozen grapes Herbs: Fresh basil, thyme, mint, or even rosemary.
