Cocchi Americano Spritz
- 4 ounces, fluid Cocchi Americano
- 4 ounces, fluid Sparkling Water (or More As Desired)
- 1 whole Orange
- When the Italians mix this vino aperitivo with anything, it is always sparkling water. The classic recipe goes like this: 1 part Cocchi to 1 part sparkling water over ice with a citrus twist. However, feel free to make it your own. I mix 1 part Cocchi with 3 parts sparkling water over ice. See what you like. This is such an elegant aperitivo, perfect for summer.
- For the garnish: Using a citrus stripper, make orange twists. OR slice oranges and cut slices into half wheels - whichever you prefer. I always go for the twist. Set aside.
- Fill glasses 1/2 full with cracked ice. Pour Cocchi Americano over ice. Add sparkling water. Stir, and garnish with citrus. Serve at once.
- This is perfect for summer. I just know you will love it.
