Hugo Spritz: The Official Cocktail of Summer 2023
As the sun shines brighter and the days grow longer, the quest for the perfect summer cocktail begins. Past seasons have seen the rise of Espresso Martinis, Dirty Shirleys, and Aperol Spritzes. However, this year, a new contender has emerged, stealing the limelight and the TikTok feeds - the Hugo Spritz.
Spritz cocktails have long been a warm-weather favorite due to their fresh taste and lower ABV. The Hugo Spritz is no exception, with a simple recipe and naturally sweet flavor thanks to the addition of St-Germain elderflower liqueur. It has already been dubbed the “drink of the summer” by the New York Times, and Google searches for the cocktail have increased by 519% since last year. Even Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Nene Leakes has been known to order a version of the Hugo Spritz herself – she’s just missing the mint leaves for added crispness.
The Hugo Spritz is easy to make at home, especially in a large batch format to serve to guests during summer cookouts, garden parties, and more. Here's the recipe:
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz St‑Germain
2 oz Martini Prosecco
2 oz Soda Water
8-10 Mint Leaves
Lime Wedge For Garnish
Mint Sprig For Garnish
Directions:
Add ice into a wine glass.
Pour in St‑Germain and add approximately eight mint leaves.
Top with sparkling wine and soda water.
Stir the drink to combine all of the ingredients.
Garnish with a mint sprig and lime wedge.
So, if you're looking for the perfect summer cocktail, look no further than the Hugo Spritz. It's the official cocktail of Summer 2023, and it's sure to be a hit at all your summer gatherings.
