One lives in function of the other and vice versa, exactly as it happens in those married and quite broken-in couples with a very good and well-behaved son.\u00a0<strong>One third Prosecco DOC Brut or Extra Dry, one third bitter and one third sparkling water,<\/strong>\u00a0and it&#8217;s immediately\u00a0<strong>Spritz<\/strong>\u00a0(but also party): thus was born one of the most popular and well-known cocktails in Italy and the world.\u00a0 Synonymous of aperitif, the spritz has been a protagonist since the mid-19th century in the Austro-Hungarian period.<\/p>\n<p>It is said that the original recipe came about by chance, when the Austrians, in order to dilute the wine to make it less alcoholic began to add seltzer water, a particularly carbonated water that was literally sprayed to water it down. This gave rise to the German name\u00a0<strong>spritzen<\/strong>, which means, precisely, &#8220;to spray.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/RFJRf6xEOURNck68pFdnmgbX9AFMS5W2yzy_YBwqPqPQwR2AvMlRKSiDjJJNLKlT0dXulkcX-UE8E_ol7VzscOqSSNX9lIp_B_SdLo7fEBXHyCUAlYpCEeIGD1k8zdaoPRgjlmeKJNX7tbihbub1jBE67awqsXCpQb1xiiXFdjspoI28x5G1ICagp-ycjMI\" width=\"316\" height=\"210\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As the centuries passed, the hunch of having a drink with great potential on one&#8217;s hands became a certainty to the point of giving rise to more or less well-known and improvised reinterpretations. Depending on the region, or even the bar within the same city, ordering a\u00a0<strong>Spritz<\/strong>\u00a0turns out to be an experience that is never the same: in Treviso, for example, we find P<strong>rosecco DOC Brut or Extra Dry and Aperol or Campari red with a slice of orange or olive; in Venice, they used Select or Cynar.<\/strong>\u00a0And again, in Udine the recipe calls for Aperol or Campari and a lemon peel; in Trieste the Austro-Hungarian tradition with wine and sparkling water endures.<\/p>\n<p>50 shades are probably too many, however, we can still stay on topic: so here are\u00a0<strong>7 variations of Spritz\u00a0<\/strong>for 7 brothers (or for anyone who doesn&#8217;t want to miss the opportunity to toast without getting bored).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/wocTYyfLdYQS6xYrYNzp9NxZ5ca161O7e_pB0TsIhezkQTAcr6wnOcEBF6poYz3NtGjmLm_NUJnNU8l_aMaGpQNM2fvny7hhSLiNKKOdeoAteFhNLyJOheAFko6bxOo89tzvgo47dT9tHSgfo_WfS5d2kmdW3eXOQD55i7OfSIhYLCdpr1rTIXv9dK6Dll0\" width=\"207\" height=\"310\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bitter Spritz.<\/strong>\u00a0Substituting Campari for the classic Aperol gives this version a more bitter and persistent aftertaste. The procedure and proportions to follow are the same: in a tumbler or goblet, pour the Prosecco DOC Brut or Extra Dry, add the bitter and complete with sparkling water; finally decorate with an orange slice and serve with plenty of ice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spritz Select.\u00a0<\/strong>Known by some as the true &#8220;Venetian Spritz,&#8221; this version, rather than being a true reinterpretation, competes with the traditional recipe: the only difference is the addition of Select instead of bitter. (For the beginners, this is a citrus liqueur with a bright red color and sweeter taste, enhanced by the combination of orange or lemon slices).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cynar Spritz.<\/strong>\u00a0A complex, almost meditative Spritz. The aromatic notes of the artichoke bitter make it less playful than the classic cocktail, but at the same time less citrusy than the Select Spritz. The Cynar Spritz represents a pleasant middle way, therefore, in which the bitter-sweet component of the artichoke blends well with the freshness of Prosecco DOC.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Pirlo.\u00a0<\/strong>As Spritz is called in Brescia, made with Prosecco DOC, bitters and sparkling water, but presented in a scenic balloon glass with a slice of orange.<\/p>\n<p><strong>White Spritz with lemon<\/strong>. Trieste&#8217;s take on the Spritz. The crystal clear color will make you think you are drinking a simple soda, but at the first sip you will be overwhelmed by an unexpected surprise. A perfect blend of Prosecco DOC, soda and lemon juice perfect for all tastes, even for those who don&#8217;t like excessive alcohol levels.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/pAPtypG6pk5395KOxqPWbtYQP-Gafb1_efMXZ-4eBN3C6wnSAShUsvUYcwHZHSXz29aWpF9Qqg7giMj5dpmJoK2X4taNXkwpQM5KLwxttg1jhWhuZuk-QGP7dO6sxnvnQ6hholLdvmbKP-FMCdiMSpW_8bwcqfFNMtyUd3O7LmteXsI7Mc7dmSOq0fkBSTn4TU5MNgjumQ\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mexican-style Spritz.\u00a0<\/strong>An exotic and different version from the usual: in a cocktail glass mix agave syrup, Vermouth, Cointreau, Prosecco DOC Brut or Extra Dry, and of course accompany it with tacos and guacamole.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spritz Hugo.\u00a0<\/strong>Born in South Tyrol, from the skilled hands of bartender Roland Gruber.
