ABOUT
Let’s pretend it’s not still winter and we can enjoy a refreshing spritz. They’re fun and easy, plus you can build it in the glass (yay, for less dishes!). Here, I use a citrus infused vodka (infused with bergamot, grapefruit, and oranges). A botanical gin would be lovely here as well. Go ahead and call this an ANY Day Spritz because why limit yourself to a holiday designed for commercialization, excessive consumerism, and the pressure to express love through material gifts…I mean 😬 Cheers y’all!
