• If using vodka, add it to the shaker as well.

• Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake well to combine and chill the mixture.

1. Assemble the Spritzers:

• Fill two glasses with ice cubes.

• Strain the cocktail mixture evenly into the glasses, dividing it between them.

• Top with sparkling water:

• Pour sparkling water or club soda into each glass, filling it to the top.

• Stir gently to mix the cocktail with the sparkling water.

1. Garnish and Serve:
