Ingredients

If summer had a signature cocktail, this would be it. The Hugo Spritz is crisp, floral, and wonderfully refreshing. Made for slow afternoons, good company, and Mediterranean-inspired moments.

A tray with a glass bottle, a tumbler, a stainless steel ice bucket, and a potted herb plant sits on a wooden table outdoors, with mountains and water visible in the blurred background. A hand holds a textured glass with a light drink and mint leaves, above a wooden table with a bottle and book in warm sunlight.

Fill a large wine glass with ice. Lightly clap the mint leaves between your hands to release their aroma, then add them to the glass. Pour in the Gratsi Sparkling White Wine, followed by the elderflower liqueur and soda water. Stir gently and serve immediately.

A person uses tongs to place ice cubes into a metal bucket on a wooden tray, next to an open bottle of white wine. A person in a striped shirt pours a yellow drink from a bottle labeled KATSI into a glass with ice on a wooden table, with mint leaves nearby in sunlight. A person in a striped shirt prepares a drink at a wooden table with a bottle labeled “GRATSI,” a glass with ice and mint, and a mint sprig nearby.
