The traditional spritz formula calls for...
a bitter aperitif lengthened with sparkling wine and soda water; here, we swap the water for a bracingly tart Italian lemon soda to offset the light bitterness of Sirene, a modern hand-made aperitif from northern Italy. The result is a bright, citrusy, and endlessly refreshing aperitif perfect for these hot summer afternoons.
