Introduction: Spriss-Spriz-Spritz

A refreshing but "firm" drink that you will see the people in Venice enjoy in the late afternoon sun.

The spritz is an historical alcoholic drink from the days of the Austro-Hungarian domination in the Veneto (1800) .
Over the years there have been several changes made to make a real cocktail. Over the years the drink has quickly spread into other cities of the Veneto

Step 1:

put some ice cube and an orange slice into a glass

1 part italian bitter like Aperol ,Campari or Select

Step 4:
