This refreshing raspberry white wine spritzer is a simple, nostalgic drink inspired by my grandmother’s recipe. She made raspberry syrup from fresh berries she picked in her garden and fermented her own white wine from grapes grown on her property. Served at her small inn, the spritzer became a customer favorite with a memorable nickname. For children, she softened the drink by using just syrup and seltzer with a few drops of wine.
A light, fizzy drink that balances fruity sweetness with crisp white wine and bubbly seltzer. Perfect for warm afternoons, casual gatherings, or as a nostalgic treat.
