Cocktail Description
The Citrus Blossom Spritz transforms simple ingredients into a refreshing escape that captures sunshine in a glass.
This easy-to-make cocktail combines the orange complexity of Grand Marnier with delicate elderflower cordial, all lightened by effervescent club soda for a drink that's simultaneously sophisticated and approachable. The interplay between the cognac-based orange liqueur and the floral sweetness creates a balanced profile that's neither too sweet nor too strong, with gentle bubbles that tickle the palate. Perfect for warm afternoon gatherings or as a pre-dinner aperitif, this spritz requires minimal bartending skills—just pour and stir. The beautiful orange and strawberry garnish adds both visual appeal and aromatic depth as you sip. It pairs wonderfully with light appetizers like goat cheese crostini, seafood dishes, or summer salads where its bright citrus notes can complement rather than overwhelm more delicate flavors.
