How to Make A Classic White Wine Spritzer

July 26, 2020 By Juliet 17 Comments

Summer’s here and there’s nothing I enjoy more than

a refreshingwhite wine spritzer.

I’m a lightweight when it comes to alcohol,

so a spritzer is the ideal option and my go-to cocktail.

There are as many versions of a spritzer as your imagination allows. Here’s my recipe for a Classic White Wine Spritzer.

 

Classic White Wine Spritzer, serves 1

4 oz white wine, chilled
4oz fizzy water
Garnish

Mix together chilled wine and fizzy water. Pour over ice, or not, and add your favorite garnish.

 


Notes
:

When it comes to fizzy water, I prefer sparkling water, but soda water or a flavored sparking water are also great options.

Regarding garnish, let the characteristics of your wine choice dictate the appropriate garnish. I prefer a Sauvignon Blanc. New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs pair particularly well with a citrus garnish. But, don’t get caught up in all the wine snobbery gobbleygook … garnish with impunity. Citrus wheels, strawberries … Martha Stewart suggests melon balls and she’d never steer us wrong.

 

Refreshing and light … a wine spritzer is the perfect year-round cocktail!

Cheers!

    Hi Juliet,
    My drink of choice when we are out is usually a white wine spritzer! Amazing how many times I’ve had to describe exactly what I want to the server!! (Don’t get me started on what usually happens when I order a Kir Royale!)
    Good job on the new blog, and looking forward to reading more! You look so pretty in all the photos, your color scheme suites you so well!
    XO Heidi

      Heidi – you’re so sweet, thank you. My husband works in the wine industry. I used to as well. People are so snobby about wine and for so long I was embarrassed to order a spritzer. Then one day I said … no more … who cares what they think! Make mine a spritzer! And, that is how I got my name. Now, tell me … what do they do to mangle your Kir Royale?! xo

    You are going to laugh, but I forgot how much I enjoy a wine spritzer because it is such a light option, and limes are a must! I am having a social distanced girls get together tomorrow afternoon, and guess what I’m bringing!

Happy Friday! It’s cocktail night at Snowberry a Happy Friday! It’s cocktail night at Snowberry and I’m trying @drinkjuliet_ Dry Rose for the first time. That’s right … a wine with my name on it … am I their muse?! I don’t know, their website says not a word about how the name came about. So let’s go with it being named after me. Anyway, this new-to-me wine brand gets two thumbs up for their Dry Rose. It’s light, dry and delicious. 🌹 They also make a Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. All their fruit is sourced from Central Coast AVAs and they’re certified by the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance. Oh and the pretty packaging is 💯 recyclable. Wine in a box you ask?! Why not? Sustainable, recyclable and 10 glasses of wine per Eco-Magnum. That’s 20 spritzers! Stays fresh in the fridge up to six week. I’m a yes! #notsponsored 📦 🍷 🙌🏻

Cheers to the weekend!
