The Limoncello Spritz applies the spritz template to lemon liqueur: limoncello for sweetness and citrus oil, Prosecco for sparkle, and soda for length. It is brighter and sweeter than a bitter Aperol spritz, with a clear summer profile. Served over ice in a wine glass, it is casual, photogenic, and easy to batch for gatherings. Fresh lemon garnish reinforces the aroma.

“Limoncello spritzes spread with the broader spritz boom as Italian lemon liqueur moved from digestivo service into casual sparkling formats.”

Bartender's Note
Because limoncello is sweet, keep the soda proportion generous. Use a dry Prosecco to avoid a candy finish.
