A Limoncello Spritz is a refreshing, bubbly Italian cocktail that we became obsessed with on a recent trip to the Mediterranean. So easy to make with just 3 ingredients. Our favorite summer cocktail!

What is in a Limoncello Spritz –

just three little ingredients
- Limoncello – you can make your own with this easy recipe or buy a bottle at most grocery or liquor stores
- Prosecco – an Italian version of sparkling wine
- Club Soda – or mineral water if you prefer

What is the ratio for Limoncello Spritz –

The best Limoncello Spritz we had was in a little restaurant in Venice and I got this straight from the Italian Bartender so you know its authentic.

Equal parts of all three. 1/3 Limoncello, 1/3 Prosecco and 1/3 Club Soda. Feel free to adjust if you like it more bubbly, less sweet. Sometimes I increase the club soda to make it less boozy. That way I can have two…or three…
Make it by the glass or the pitcher – no measuring required.

We love our pool this time of year. We love it even better with summer cocktails and friends. I always have this Limoncello Spritz on hand.

It’s like Sunshine in a glass!

How to make a Limoncello Spritz

Fill a beautiful large glass with crushed ice.
Fill the glass 1/3 full of Limoncello Liquor – store bought or homemade.
Add 1/3 Prosecco
Top with 1/3 club soda
Add a garnish of fresh lemon.

Pro Tips for the Perfect Sip:

Chill your glass beforehand for an extra refreshing drink.
Use high-quality limoncello for the most authentic flavor. You can find Limoncello at your local liquor and beverage store and in some grocery stores near the liquor section.
Swap soda water for tonic or flavored sparkling water for a twist.
Garnish generously with fresh sliced lemon and add a pretty straw for the perfect sip.
