The Spritz is an Italian aperitif highball, especially associated with Veneto and northern Italy. Its modern popularity rests on the combination of Prosecco, bitter-sweet aperitif, and soda water. The cocktail should be light, sparkling, and refreshing. The aperitif's bitterness balances sweetness, while plenty of ice preserves the dry aperitif character.
