For me, spring marks the unmistakable return of spritz season at K&L, when Prosecco, Italian aperitifs, and fresh botanicals once again define how I drink as the days grow warmer. The classic Aperol Spritz is always my starting point, but I’m just as drawn to lighter, more aromatic variations like the Hugo Spritz, where elderflower liqueur adds a floral lift perfect for brunches and Mother’s Day celebrations. When I want more depth, the Negroni Sbagliato and the historic Americano showcase the versatility of vermouth and bitter aperitivo. Built on sparkling wine, soda, or aromatized wine, the spritz remains my go‑to cocktail for spring.
