Say goodbye to bitterness and hello to a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
The Aperol Spritz might be iconic, but it’s officially got competition. Meet the Solero Spritz, a luscious, fruity, and refreshing cocktail that’s tailor-made for summer afternoons, garden parties, and spontaneous balcony sessions.
With its dreamy combo of passion fruit, vanilla, and a golden liqueur base, this twist on the traditional spritz is winning hearts—and glasses—everywhere.
The secret? Licor 43, a Spanish vanilla-citrus liqueur, blended with passion fruit nectar and sparkling Prosecco.
And if that wasn’t indulgent enough, it comes topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. That’s right: it’s dessert and cocktail in one.
Here’s How to Make the Solero Spritz
Ingredients:
- 50 ml Licor 43 Original
- 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream
- 100 ml passion fruit nectar
- 100 ml Prosecco (or sparkling water if you prefer it light)
- Ice cubes
- Fresh mint (for garnish)
- Optional: a wedge of passion fruit or a lemon slice for extra flair
Instructions:
- Fill a large wine glass generously with ice.
- Gently add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the center.
- Pour in Licor 43, then the passion fruit nectar.
- Top off with chilled Prosecco or sparkling water.
- Garnish with mint and a slice of lemon or passion fruit.
- Serve immediately—before the ice cream fully melts!
Unlike bitter spritzes, the Solero Spritz leans into creamy, fruity freshness—think tropical cocktail meets European café indulgence.
It’s an instant crowd-pleaser and a total visual stunner. Plus, with or without the Prosecco, it adapts easily for a non-alcoholic version.
