History of the Limoncello Spritz Cocktail
The Limoncello Spritz cocktail is a vibrant twist on the classic Spritz, blending the northern Italian cocktail with the southern charm of limoncello made from Amalfi Coast lemons. While some credit its origin to Naples, where limoncello infused the Spritz with local flair, others trace it back to 2012 when Bottega introduced a variation featuring limoncello, Prosecco, and soda. With its sunny yellow hue and refreshing mix of limoncello, Prosecco and soda, the Limoncello Spritz cocktail has gained global popularity, embodying the perfect blend of Italy’s northern and southern traditions.
