A $5 spritz-saver for summer entertaining:
: a mix of sherry and Campari topped with sparkling wine that's not too sweet at all. I up the salt with an olive in each glass, and could happily sip one every evening all summer long.
My problem with the spritz has nothing to do with what you make it with, though. I don't like how you have to open up a whole bottle of sparkling wine to make a drink that really only gets a small topper of bubbles. If you’re just one or two people having spritzes, well, you have to be committed to drinking a few too many in order to finish that bottle before it goes flat.
It’s a simple mechanism. Everyone should have one, or two, or four on hand. You pop open the wings and then clamp them down over the bottle. Pop it in the fridge and it traps all those bubbles in place. When it’s spritz ‘o clock, pull the wings up and pop! you’re ready to go again. Repeat for up to a week until the bottle is empty.
Would I use it for the finest, most expensive bottle of real-deal French champagne? Well, probably not. When you open a bottle like that it should be enjoyed and shared in one sitting while it’s at its best. But for the kind of sparkling wines you use for a spritz it keeps the fizz fresh enough to lighten up your cocktail. And you know what? Any tool that justifies a summer spritz on a Monday is one worth owning.
