Cocktail Description
A shimmering, aromatic alternative to the Aperol Spritz that trades bitter orange for delicate floral notes.
The Elderflower Spritz combines crisp Ketel One vodka with the honeyed, subtly fruity character of St-Germain, brightened by fresh lemon and lightened with effervescent club soda. This refreshing cocktail offers a perfect balance of sweet and tart with a gentle complexity that makes it both sophisticated and approachable. It's an ideal choice for spring and summer gatherings, particularly brunches or early evening garden parties when its light, bubbly nature shines brightest. The Elderflower Spritz couldn't be simpler to prepare—just pour the ingredients over ice and stir—making it perfect for entertaining when you don't want to be stuck playing bartender. Its delicate flavor profile pairs wonderfully with light appetizers like smoked salmon canapés, fresh oysters, or mild cheeses, though it's equally enjoyable on its own as a pre-dinner refresher.
