## How to Make a Ramazzotti Spritz?

This cocktail combines equal parts Ramazzotti and sparkling wine, typically softened with a splash of sparkling water, served very cold with fresh orange slices and plenty of ice.

**Prep time:** 5 minutes

**Servings:** 2 people

### Ingredients

- 100 ml Ramazzotti
- 100 ml sparkling wine
- 50 ml sparkling water
- 4 orange slices
- Ice cubes

### Instructions

1. Fill two tall wine glasses with an orange slice and 2 ice cubes each. Top each glass with 50 ml of Ramazzotti, 50 ml of sparkling wine, and 25 ml of sparkling water.
2. Serve the Ramazzotti Spritz right away, well chilled, garnished with a second orange slice on the rim and, optionally, more ice to taste.

## Bartender Tips

### Choose a Dry Sparkling Wine

Pick a brut or extra brut sparkling wine, since its low sugar content balances Ramazzotti’s sweetness and highlights its floral and fruity notes.

### Serve It Ice Cold

The ideal serving temperature is between 6°C and 8°C (43–46°F), chilling both the Ramazzotti and the sparkling wine beforehand and using plenty of ice to hold the temperature.

### Try Other Fruit Garnishes

Besides orange, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or thin grapefruit slices all work well for an aromatic, decorative touch.
