Umeshu Spritz

@sipswithkilala Umeshu Spritz 🍸🌼 A delicate twist on the iconic spritz, this version swaps out Aperol for umeshu, the sweet-tart Japanese plum liqueur. Received this beautiful plum wine from Choya at the Bar & Restaurant Expo in Las Vegas. Paired with crisp Prosecco and a splash of soda water, it’s light, refreshing, and quietly complex—with notes of ripe fruit, subtle florals, and just the right amount of sparkle. Effortlessly sippable and perfect for summer, it’s made for sunny afternoons and slow golden hours. . Recipe is also on my website. ☺️ . . . #drinkrecipes #cocktails #drinks #cocktailrecipeideas #Summer #sanjose #cocktailrecipe #summerdrink #sipswithkilala #plumwine #umeshu #spritz #spritz #spritzgirlsummer #prosecco #cocktail #garnish #chamomile #aperitivo #apertif ♬ Summer Too Hot - OJ The DJ
