Cocktail of the week: Ombra’s Spritz Fagio – recipe

A bittersweet version of the popular Italian aperitif

Spritz is without any doubt the most popular drink in Veneto, where it’s almost a religion. This one features a bold combination of a bitter spirit (Cynar) and a sweet one (Campari), and is named after one of our regulars. Rooftop terrace with a view optional.

Spritz Fagio

Serves 1

25ml Cynar
25ml Campari
50ml prosecco
Soda
, to top
1 orange slice and 1 green olive, to garnish

Pour the Cynar and Campari into a high tumbler filled with ice, add the prosecco and stir. Add chilled soda water to top, garnish and serve.
