Easy Vodka Spritzers (3 Flavors!)
Shake your cocktail routine up with these crisp, refreshing Vodka Spritzers! Recipe includes 3 flavor variations with real fruit juice, no added sugar and they’re beyond easy to make!

Cocktails always liven up any gathering, especially when they include festive seasonal fruits and refreshing flavor.
I love serving strawberry lemon drop martinis in the summer, but in the fall it’s all about these refreshing Vodka Spritzers!
They’re crisp, refreshing and are so easy to make.
The vodka, lime, fresh fruit juice and a sprig of fresh herbs like mint or rosemary are added to a cocktail shaker, then they’re muddled to release their flavor.
From there, add ice to the shaker, secure the lid and shake the cocktail until it’s nice and cold. Pour into a glass of ice, top it off with sparkling water, then garnish and serve.
These can be customized a variety of ways, and they’re always an impressive addition to any gathering. 🙂
