Summer in the mountains
The Hugo Spritz is popular across the Alps and often welcomes travelers after a long day of hiking. Our refreshing play on the original substitutes French elderflower liqueur for limoncello and adds sparkling lemon soda, an Austrian favorite. The sweetness of the marillenschnaps (apricot schnapps) perfectly complements the citrus, creating the ideal summer drink.
