Like its older sibling, the Bourbon Spritz has a base of Aperol and prosecco, but unlike its summer-loving sibling, the Bourbon Spritz has a welcoming winter feel due to its rich spirit base and zesty lemon and blood orange edge. Citrusy, sweet and bubbly, this winter wonder is ideal for sipping fireside. Log cabin optional.
