History
Rooted in Northern Italy’s aperitivo tradition, the Spritz was born from diluting wine with soda and later brightened with bitters. Today it’s shorthand for golden hour terraces, light snacks, and unhurried conversation. Effervescent and gently bitter‑sweet, it invites long sipping rather than quick shots, becoming less a single drink and more a ritual of taking it easy.
