Refreshing Lemon Herb Spritzer Cocktail Recipe

June 21, 2018 by Greta Brinkley Leave a Comment

So often, cocktails are on the sweet side. Hey, we like to have something dessert-like with a kick! This Lemon Herb Spritzer, though, is a refreshing change of pace.

It has that great fruity flavor with a hint of sweetness, but pairs amazingly well with fresh herbs. They bring a subtle earthiness and sophistication to the drink. Add in the little zing of fresh ginger, and this will easily become one of your favorite summer go-to drinks.

If you’d like to make this a virgin mocktail, just leave out the vodka. It’s still totally amazing!  I think this would be a great signature drink for a wedding too. You can make a big batch of the base up ahead of time, and just add the sparkling water when serving. This is Paleo and Whole 30 friendly, too.

This Lemon Herb Spritzer is sure to become one of your favorite drinks. It's refreshing and sophisticated, and would make a great wedding cocktail. It's an easy recipe that can be batch for a crowd. Paleo and Whole30 friendly too
