Hugo Spritz

My daughter told me about the Hugo Spritz, and it’s a new one for the list.

Ingredients

Serves 1

• 60ml elderflower liqueur
• 30ml vodka (optional, if you feel like getting a bit more tipsy)
• A wedge of lemon
• 4 mint leaves
• Ice
• About 120ml prosecco or cava
• About 2 tbsp soda water

Method

1. Put the elderflower liqueur, vodka (if using), lemon and mint in a wine glass.
2. Gently muddle so the lemon gets squeezed a bit – carefully, so you don’t break your glass.
3. Add ice, top up with the prosecco or cava, and finish with a splash of soda water.

Jules’s tip

I prefer cava to prosecco here – it’s slightly less sweet.
