Tangerine Twist Spritz Cocktail Recipe
I'm excited to share my Tangerine Twist Spritz Cocktail recipe with you! It’s refreshing and perfect for any occasion. We'll go through the tools you need, the ingredients, and how to put it all together. Let's get started! 🍊🍹
Equipment
- A cocktail shaker is essential for mixing everything evenly.
- I also use a fine strainer to ensure the drink is smooth with no pulp.
- A jigger helps with accurate measurements.
- Finally, I have a stylish rocks glass ready to serve this vibrant drink.
- For garnishing, I suggest a peeler to create lovely tangerine twists that add flair to the glass.
Ingredients
The star of my cocktail is fresh tangerine juice, offering a burst of flavor.
- I blend it with prosecco for a bubbly lift.
- A dash of club soda adds extra fizz while keeping things light.
- To sweeten I like to use simple syrup.
- For an added twist a hint of Campari provides a touch of bitterness.
Instructions
Here’s how I put it all together. 🍹
- I start by squeezing fresh tangerines to get about 2 ounces of juice.
- In a cocktail shaker, I combine the tangerine juice, 1 ounce of prosecco, 0.5 ounces of club soda, and a splash of Campari.
- I shake it until it’s all nicely chilled.
- Using a fine strainer, I pour the cocktail into a rocks glass filled with ice.
I finish it off with a tangerine peel twist for a pop of color and flavor.
Notes
A few personal tips to make this cocktail even better:
I sometimes like to chill the glasses ahead of time to keep the drink colder for longer. Adjusting the sweetness is easy by adding more or less simple syrup depending on my taste that day. Don't skimp on the tangerine twist garnish; it really enhances the aroma when enjoying the cocktail.
