Linda Douglas, a bartender at Donna’s in Los Angeles and a contributor to Phillips Distilling Co.’s cocktail trend report, “Cocktailmanac,” told BI that spritzes will continue to dominate this summer.
She said some bartenders call spritzes the “supermodels” of the cocktail world because as soon as someone sees one, they want one, especially in the summer months.
“The Hugo Spritz, in particular, looks light, refreshing, and effervescent. It’s a great profile to introduce new flavors, like elderflower, or local herbs, to people, too,” she said.
