KaiserSpritzer

Submitted by momaphet

"A sparkling, refreshing drink. You can adjust the soda to wine ratio to taste, some prefer more soda in the summer for a lighter drink. To lower the alcohol content (and the cost) sub elderflower syup for the St-Germain, both are sweet and lightly floral (and delish!) so start with the lower amount and add more to taste."

What a pretty and refreshing little spritzer! I had a bottle of Elderflower Liqueur that's been hanging around a bit too long in my cabinet, and this was a perfect use for it! Note: St Germain is pretty expensive. I used Fleur, by DeKuyper, which isn't nearly as good but is a much more reasonable alternative! Made for CQ4, Team Happy Campers.
