Summer Spritz

by Sarah Gualtieri from Sips of the Seasons

I often say that every season is spritz season, but they taste just a little better in the summer. There’s nothing better than enjoying a bubbly spritz while dining alfresco or lounging by the pool. While a classic Aperol or Hugo spritz are both great choices, this combination of both – with a hint of bright citrus – is one of my favourites.
