Game Day Spritz

This drink bridges the gap between beer drinkers and spritz lovers for a Game Day cocktail all can find something to love in.

About the Game Day Spritz

For a cocktail that has literally been around for centuries, the popularity of the spritz never seems to wane. It has become the accomplishment of many mixologists, both amateur and professional, to create their own unique version of the time-honored aperitif cocktail. We opted to take it a step further and give another popular cocktail a shot as a contributor to the flavor profile. Our spritz is a little riff on the classic Negroni…with a twist in that we used a splash of beer, for the Game Day crowd. We love both Negronis and Spritzes, but some of us were initially a tad more skeptical about the usage of beer to produce the “spritz.” However, we were pleasantly surprised by how the effervescence created by the beer “hit different.”
