A Limoncello Spritz is the perfect Friday drink! If your week has been anything like mine, you’re on total virtual meeting burnout and ready for the weekend.
Not sure it’s an official staying, but when life gives you limoncello, make a cocktail! With it being the first of the year we were of course working on watching what we’re eating and drinking. However, my sister had the booze and we were doing a late Christmas celebration, so drinks were in order.
Let’s Mix!
Truly there’s nothing to it, just a few ingredients, a few ice cubes and you’re set!
- Fill glass half full with ice
- 1-2 ounces (1-2 shots) of limoncello
- Splash of grenadine (optional – but delish!)
- Top it off with sparkling water (lemon or lime)
One quick mixology note. We didn’t put the ingredients in a shaker cup, we just layered them in our glasses. However, I think if the limoncello and grenadine had been stirred together before adding the sparkling water, it would have been a great balance too.
If lemon isn’t your thing, you could always go for a Pineapple Mule or add Bourbon Cherries to your Old Fashioned!
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and if you mix up one of these, let me know how it turns out or other good flavor combos!
