Fig Spritz

The Fig Spritz is a floral, slightly fruity take on a classic spritz-style drink. Fig vodka gives it a rich, subtly sweet base, while elderflower liqueur adds soft floral notes that keep things bright and balanced. Topped with Prosecco and a splash of sparkling water, it’s fizzy, refreshing, and not too heavy. A fresh fig slice adds a touch of elegance without overcomplicating the drink. It’s perfect for early evenings or relaxed outdoor hangs.

Tasting Notes

This Fig Spritz drink has a soft, floral profile with fruity depth. The fig vodka adds gentle sweetness and a rich, jammy note, while the elderflower liqueur brings a light, almost citrusy floral flavor. Prosecco gives it a crisp finish, and the splash of sparkling water keeps everything refreshing. You’ll taste subtle fig and floral flavors first, followed by the bubbles and a bit of dryness from the wine. It’s an easy drink with balanced layers great if you want something light and flavorful without being too strong or overly sweet.

Equipment and Glassware

You’ll need a wine glass, a bar spoon, and a jigger. That’s it. The wine glass helps show off the fig slice and bubbles, while the wide bowl lets the aromas open up. If you don’t have a jigger, any small measuring tool will do. A long spoon makes it easy to mix everything gently without disturbing the fizz too much. No shaker or strainer needed for this one just build it straight in the glass.
